Describe the relationship between the structure of the eye and sight
Identify types of corrective lenses used to correct different sight problems (Example: convex – farsightedness,
concave – nearsightedness)

The corneacornea bends or refracts the rays that pass through a round hole called the pupil.

The irisiris, or colored portion of the eye that surrounds the pupil, opens and closes.

The pupilpupil gets bigger or smaller to regulate the amount of light passing through.

The light rays then pass through the lenslens, which actually changes shape so it can further bend the rays and focus them on the retina at the back of the eye.

Structure of the Eye: Cornea and LensCornea
EyelensRetina
There are two lenses in your eye, the cornea and the eyelens. The cornea, the front surface of the eye, does most of the
focusing in your eye The eyelens provides adjustable fine-tuning of the focus

The Eyelens: Accommodation
The eyelens changes its focal length by changing its shape. Ligaments pull on the lens to change the amount of “bulge”
![Page 9: Contrast ways in which light rays are bent by concave and convex lenses. Describe the relationship between the structure of the eye and sight Identify](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649f385503460f94c543f2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Eyelens: Accommodation
Muscles contract, ligaments relax, more bulge, more bending power, shorter focal length
Muscles relax, ligaments contract, less bulge, less bending power, longer focal length

The retinaretina is a thin layer of tissue at the back of the eye that contains millions of tiny light-sensing nerve cells. The images that we see are projected onto the retina upside down. Our brain quite simply, flips the images over so that we see things upright.

Structure of the Eye: Retina The retina is the sensor or film of your eye.
Its layers do three thingsProvide blood and nutrients (choroid)Absorb light and convert to an electrical signal
(photoreceptors)Transfer the signal to the brain (nerve cells)
Plexiform layer (nerve cells)
Rods and Cones (photoreceptors)
Choroid (blood vessels)

Photoreceptors: Rods and Cones Light is detected and
converted to an electrical signal by the photoreceptors in the retina. There are two main kinds of receptors, rods and cones
This is a false color image, rods and cones are not actually different colors

Photoreceptors: Cones Cones are responsible for
our fine detailed and color vision
Cones are clustered near the center of your retina, called the fovea
There are 5 million cones in the average retina

Photoreceptors: Rods
Rods are responsible for low light and peripheral vision
They are present everywhere in the retina except the fovea
There are 125 million rods in the average retina

Rods and Cones Because of their different functions, rods and
cones are present in varying densities in the retina. The blind spot is due to the connection of the optic nerve

The optic nerve optic nerve transmits information to the brain.

The vitreous bodyvitreous body, or maculamacula, gives the eye its shape.

Lenses bend light in useful ways. Most devices that control light have one or more lenses in them (some use only mirrors, which can do most of the same things that lenses can do).
There are TWO basic simple lens types: There are TWO basic simple lens types: Concave and Convex Concave and Convex
What are lenses?
![Page 20: Contrast ways in which light rays are bent by concave and convex lenses. Describe the relationship between the structure of the eye and sight Identify](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649f385503460f94c543f2/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
CONVEXCONVEX or POSITIVE lenses will CONVERGE or FOCUS light and can form an IMAGE.
By wearing a convex (converging) spectacle lens, the rays of light from a near object are converged before entering the eye so that the cornea and eye lens can direct the focal point onto the retina.

The correct name for farsightednessfarsightedness is HyperopiaHyperopia. The shape of your eye does not bend light correctly, resulting in a blurred image. A convex lens is usually used to correct this problem.
Convex lens

CONCAVECONCAVE or NEGATIVE lenses will DIVERGE (spread out) light rays.
By wearing a concave (diverging) spectacle lens, the rays of light from a near object are diverged before entering the eye so that the cornea and eye lens can direct the focal point onto the retina.

The correct name of nearsightednessnearsightedness is MyopiaMyopia. Myopia occurs when the eyeball is slightly longer than usual from front to back. This causes light rays to focus at a point in front of the retina, rather than directly on its surface. A concave lens is usually used to correct this problem.
Concave lens

In simple magnificationmagnification, light from an object passes through a biconvex lens and is bent (refracted) towards your eye. It makes it appear to have come from a much bigger object.
