Introduction of Eyes
Eyes are one of the optical instruments It contain convex lens can distinguish about 10 million colors consisting of various muscles, tissues, and nerve sensors

CORNEA
Protective and transparent layer (covers the iris and pupil) In human the refractive power of the cornea is approximately 43 dioptres In front of the eye
BACK
PUPIL
The circular opening in the center of the pigmented iris of the eye Through which light passes to the retina Dim light = pupil gets bigger Bright light = pupil gets smaller
BACK
IRIS
Give colors Manage the number of slices of light Controlling the size of the pupils and amount of light
BACK
LENS
Held by cilliary muscle Can set the eyes thickness See objects at various distances
BACK
CILLIARY MUSCLE
Controls accommodation for viewing objects at varying distances Regulates the flow of aqueous humour It changes the shape of the lens within the eye
BACK
RETINA
Sensitive to light Image fall on it with the nature of image that real and inverted
BACK
OPTICAL NERVES
Transmits visual information from the retina to the brain

Normal eyes
Near point = 25cm Far point = infinity
BACK
Short-sightedness (Myopia)
Distant objects appear blurred Far point < infinity Sample Equation Use concave lens to help
FLASH
Page 148 No.1) A far point for a person with shortsightedness is 1.2m. Calculate the optical power of lens!
BACK
Far-sightedness (Hypermetropia)
Cannot see close objects clearly Near point > 25cm Sample Equation Use convex lens to help
FLASH
Page 149 No.1) A punctum proximum of a person with hypermetropia is 50 cm. He would like to read at distance of 20 cm. Calculate the optical power of lens that is used!

Accommodation
Accommodation is process of managing the
thickness of lens or changing the optical power.

Example
Suppose the distance from the lens of an eye to the retina is 3 cm. Find the range of optical power of eye accommodation!
