The extra-ocular muscles are inserted into the sclera and serve to rotate the eye in all possible directions. There are _______of these muscles. Correct Answer: Six
The fibrous tunic is comprised of the: Correct Answer: Sclera and cornea
Fusion occurs: Correct Answer: In the brain
The aqueous fluid is continually being manufactured by: Correct Answer: The ciliary body
The ability of the eye to bring objects of varying distances to focus on the retina is known as: Correct Answer: Accommodation
When accommodation is at rest, rays of light from a distant source come to focus behind the retina. This condition is known as: Correct Answer: Hyperopia
Impulses are carried from the retina to the brain along the: Correct Answer: Optic nerve
That area of the retina capable of perceiving the greatest amount of detail is: Correct Answer: Fovea centralis
The average cornea has a refractive power of approximately: Correct Answer: 43 diopters
The layer of the cornea which is highly regenerative is: Correct Answer: The epithelium
Night vision is chiefly a function of the: Correct Answer: Rods
A tendency of the visual axis to deviate inward while the eyes are in a position of rest is known as: Correct Answer: Esophoria
A "farsighted" eye is one that is: Correct Answer: Hyperopic
The term used to indicate "double vision" is: Correct Answer: Diplopia
The condition in which the ability to accommodate for near vision becomes inadequate because of loss of elasticity of the crystalline lens is called: Correct Answer: Presbyopia
When there is a loss of vision without any apparent disease of the eye it is known as: Correct Answer: Amblyopia
A refractive error in which the rays of light do not come to a single point of focus is called: Correct Answer: Astigmatism
The condition in which the crystalline lens of the eye gradually loses its transparency with consequent loss of visual acuity is known
