The Human Eye
The Human Eye n Refractive index of lens different for each wavelength (colour) n Cool colours (blues) appear closer; warm colours (reds) further away n Agree?
Most people see the red, Closer than the blue. Others see the opposite. How about you?
The Human Eye n n Your eyes are about to get a workout. Have you stretched your eye muscles yet? No? Then do that now!
Are you seeing spots?
Look at the cross for 10 seconds. What do you see?
Are these lines bent…. ?
…or straight?
What shapes do you see?

The Human Eye
Structure & Function n IRIS q q n coloured part of eye controls light entering PUPIL q q black hole in iris where light enters
Structure & Function n SCLERA q q q n whites of the eye supports eyeball provides attachment for muscles LENS q q converging lens allows us to see objects near and far
Structure & Function n CORNEA q q n transparent bulge over pupil focuses light (refracts) onto retina RETINA q q q internal membrane contain light-receptive cells (rods & cones) converts light to electrical signal
Blind Spot n n On retina where optic nerve leads back into the brain No rod or cone cells Other eye compensates for this area Try this test to prove you have a blind spot…
Close left eye and approach screen while staring at the letters…watch the dot!
Structure & Function OPTIC NERVE n Transmits electrical impulses from retina to the brain n Creates blind spot n Brain takes inverted image and flips it so we can see
Structure & Function n RODS q q q n 120 million cells detect brightness (black & white) for night vision CONES q q 6 million cells detect colour (RGB) GANGLION CELLS Detect movement and patterns
Normal Eye Focus “Blind spot”
Video You. Tube “The Human Eye” and “How the Human Eye Works” n
Focusing Problems HYPEROPIA n Far-sightedness n Problem seeing close objects n Distance between lens and retina too small n Light focused behind retina n Corrected with converging lenses
Far-Sighted (Hyperopia)
Focusing Problems PRESBYOPIA n Form of far-sightedness n Harder for people to read as they age n Lens loses elasticity n Corrected by glasses with converging lenses
Focusing Problems MYOPIA n Near-sightedness n Problem seeing objects far away n Distance between lens and retina too large n Light focused in front of retina n Correct with diverging lenses
Near-Sighted (Myopia)
Diseases of the Eye ASTIGMATISM n Eye cannot focus an object’s image on a single point on retina n Cornea is oval instead of spherical n Causes blurred vision n Some types can be corrected with lenses
Diseases of the Eye GLAUCOMA n Group of diseases n Affects optic nerve pressure n Loss of ganglion cells n Gradual loss of sight and eventual blindness n Check eyes regularly n Can be treated
Diseases of the Eye CATARACTS n Clouding forms in lens due to denaturing of lens protein n Obstructs passage of light n Caused by age, chronic exposure to UV, or due to trauma n Removed by surgery
Vision Correction CONTACT LENSES n Artificial lens placed over cornea n Same as glasses n Corrects for both near and far-sightedness n Also used for cosmetic purposes (eye colour, Hollywood)
Vision Correction LASIK n “Laser Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis” n Refractive surgery using laser n Corrects near and farsightedness and astigmatisms
