• Distant vision and dim light—

Sensory Layer: Retina• Delicate two-layered membrane

• Pigmented layer –

• Neural layer -

The Retina• Ganglion cell axons••• Optic disc (blind spot)

••

Photoreceptors• Rods• More numerous at:• Operate in:• Provide:

49

• Cones

• Found in:• Operate in:• Provide:

Cones• There are three types of cones named for the colors of light absorbed:

• Intermediate hues are perceived by:

• Color blindness is due to:

Internal Chambers and Fluids• The lens and ciliary zonule separate the anterior and posterior segments

• Posterior segment contains vitreous humor that:•

• Anterior segment is composed of two chambers• Anterior chamber—

• Posterior chamber—

• Anterior segment contains aqueous humor•

• Supplies:

• Glaucoma:

Lens••• Lens fibers—• Lens becomes denser, more convex, and less elastic with age• Cataracts (clouding of lens) occur as a consequence of aging, diabetes mellitus, heavy smoking, and frequent exposure to intense sunlight

Light• Our eyes respond to:

• Light:

• Rods and Cones:

Refraction and Lenses• Refraction

•

50

• Light passing through a convex lens:

• The image formed at the focal point:

Focusing Light on the Retina• Pathway of light entering the eye: cornea, aqueous humor, lens, vitreous humor, neural layer of retina, photoreceptors• Light is refracted•••• Change in lens curvature allows for fine focusing of an image

Focusing for Distant Vision• Light rays from distant objects are:

• Ciliary muscles are:

• Lens is:

Focusing for Close Vision• Light from a close object diverges as it approaches the eye; requires that the eye make active adjustments• Close vision requires• Accommodation—• Near point of vision is determined by:• Presbyopia—• Constriction—

• Convergence—

Problems of Refraction• Myopia (nearsightedness)—

• Hyperopia (farsightedness)—

Functional Anatomy of Photoreceptors• Rods and cones• Outer segment of each contains visual pigments -

• Once light is absorbed by the visual pigments:

The Visual Pathway from the optic nerve to the occipital lobe of brain

SPECIAL SENSES- THE EAR

The Ear • Three parts of the ear1 External (outer) ear2 Middle ear (tympanic cavity)3 Internal (inner) ear

51

The Ear: Hearing and Balance• External and middle ear are involved with:

• Internal ear (labyrinth) functions in both:

External Ear• The auricle (pinna) is composed of:

••• External acoustic meatus (auditory canal)•• Tympanic membrane (eardrum)

•••

Middle Ear • Pharyngotympanic (auditory) tube—connects the middle ear to the nasopharynx

•

Ear Ossicles• Three small bones in tympanic cavity: the malleus, incus, and stapes

• Transmit : • Tensor tympani and stapedius muscles :

Internal Ear• Bony labyrinth

•• Three parts:

• Filled with:•

• Filled with:

Vestibule•

• Contains two membranous sacs (saccule and utricle) that:••

Semicircular Canals• Three canals that:

• Membranous semicircular ducts:

• Ampulla (swelling) of each canal houses:

52

• Receptors respond to:

Equilibrium

The Cochlea• A spiral, conical, bony chamber

•

• Contains the cochlear duct:
