How can we use lenses to correct

vision?

How can we use lenses to correct vision?

If the image is turned upside down too soon, what lens would we use?

What if the image was turned upside down too late? What lens would we use?

c. Farsightedness- image formed behind retina

a. Normal eye

b. Nearsightedness-image formed in front of retina

Corrected with concave lens

Corrected with convex lens

No correction needed

Eyeball too long

Eyeball too short

Retina: the picture is upside down here

Retina: the picture is upside down here Made up of millions of tiny, light-sensitive

cells called rods and cones

and gray; allows you to see in dim light

Retina: the picture is upside down here Made up of millions of tiny, light-sensitive

cells called rods and conesRods: distinguish among black, white

and gray; allows you to see in dim lightCones: respond to color, 3 types: red,

green and blue. Only function in bright light

Normally, there are three kinds of cones (each one sensitive to a specific range of wavelengths):

"red" cones (64%)"green" cones (32%)"blue" cones (2%)

The normal human retina contains two kinds of light sensitive cells: the rod cells (active only in low light) and the cone cells (active in normal daylight and responsible for color perception).

The different kinds of inherited color blindness result from partial or complete loss of function of one or more of the different cone systems.

Different Types of Color Blindness

Monochromacy: occurs when two or all three of the cone pigments are missing and color and lightness vision is reduced to one dimension.

Total color blindness-see everything as white, black and shades of gray

Dichromacy: occurs when only one of the cone pigments is missing and color is reduced to two dimensions.

Partial color blindnessred-greenblue-yellow
