46
What is located behind the pupil?
Lens
47
What is the Lens surrounded and attached by?
Ciliary muscles
48
What can the Ciliary muscles do?
They alter the shape of the lens, making it thinner or thicker to allow the incoming light rays to focus on the retina.
49
What is accommodation of the eye?
It is the eye's ability to change the shape of its lens and size of the pupil to focus on objects at different distances.
This process allows the eye to see objects that are both near and far away.
50
What happens when you are looking at an object at a far distance? (Accommodation related)
Ciliary muscle is relaxed
Zonular fibers pull the Lens and flatten to focus on distant object.
51
What happens when you are looking at an object at a close distance? (Accommodation related)
Ciliary muscles contract
Zonular fibers relax and allow the lens to thicken to focus on close object

67
What do the photoreceptors contain that cause a chemical change when light hits Rod and Cone cells?
Photopigments
68
What happens when the photoreceptors that contain photopigments cause a chemical change when light hits them (Rod and Cone cells)?
It causes impulses to be sent to the optic nerve (CNII)
69
What happens after the impulses are sent to the optic nerve?
The information is then sent to the brain where the impulse is interpreted in the visual cortex of the occipital lobe, and we "see" the object
70
Summary of what happens when light rays enter the eye
-Light rays enter the eye
-Pass through the cornea
-Aqueous humor
-pupil
-Lens
-vitreous humor
-And are focused on the retina.

It will synapse with another neuron and this other neuron is then going to send this signal to pupil.
111
Why is ciliary muscle important?
Because it essentially (근본[기본/본질]적으로) changes the shape of our lens and thus how much light is coming into our eye.
112

It will synapse with other nerves in the lateral geniculate body and these nerves will carry along the optic tract and down to the occipital lobe.
124
What happens to the light that needs to cross over?
It will cross over in the optic chiasm and will bring information to the other side.
125

They will also bring some information to the pretectal nucleus in the midbrain.
126
What receives the signal in the pretectal nucleus in the midbrain?
Neurons in the pretectal nucleus
127
Where will the information from the left eye go after the pretectal nucleus?
The neurons in the pretectal nucleus will bring this information to the nucleus of Edinger Westphal.
128
What is so special about this movement of information from the pretectal nucleus to Edinger Westphal nucleus?
The neuron in the pretectal nucleus will not only bring the information to same side of the Edinger Westphal nucleus, but it will cross over as well and bring the information to the opposite Edinger Westphal nucleus.

133
What happens after the oculomotor nerve synapses in the ciliary ganglion with the short ciliary nerve on both sides?
The short ciliary nerve will bring this information to the pupil, to the iris, causing the iris to constrict.
134
Tell me the order of the pupillary reflex.
Retina
Optic nerve, (CNII)
Prerectal Nucleus (Bilateral innervation happens here)
To the Edinger Westphal nucleus
Oculomotor nerve will be stimulated.
Ciliary Ganglion
Short ciliary nerve to stimulate the circular muscle(iris)
Causing pupillary constriction
135
What happens when we have a lesion on the left optic nerve and we shine a light on the left eye?
We will get no pupillary response or constriction on either side.
136
What happens when we have a lesion on the optic chiasm and we shine a light on the left eye?
The signal is still being sent to the pretectal nucleus and cross-overs to the nucleus of Edinger Westphal.
Because the optic nerve that transfers information to the left side of the brain is not affected.
Thus, the light reflex will still be present and you will still see pupil constriction.
137
What happens when we have a lesion on the left occulomotor nerve and we shine a light on the left eye?
The information is still being received by the midbrain, the nucleus of Edinger Westphal.
But you won't see any pupil constriction on the left side.
138
What happens when we have a lesion on the right oculomotor nerve and we shine a light on the left eye?
The information is still being received by the midbrain, the nucleus of Edinger Westphal.
But you won't see any pupil constriction on the right side.
139
What is the effect of the sympathetic nervous system on the pupil?
The sympathetic nervous system dilates the pupil (mydriasis) by stimulating the dilator pupillae muscle.
140
Why does the sympathetic nervous system dilate the pupil?
To allow more light to enter the eye and enhance vision in low-light or stressful conditions.
141
What is the effect of the parasympathetic nervous system on the pupil?
The parasympathetic nervous system constricts the pupil (miosis) by activating the sphincter pupillae muscle.
142
Why does the parasympathetic nervous system constrict the pupil?
To reduce the amount of light entering the eye in bright conditions.
143
How does the sympathetic nervous system affect the ciliary muscle?
It inhibits (억제하다) the ciliary muscle, relaxing the lens for distant vision.
144
How does the parasympathetic nervous system affect the ciliary muscle?
It contracts the ciliary muscle, enabling the lens to thicken for near vision (accommodation).
145
What is the role of the sympathetic nervous system in the "fight or flight" response regarding the eye?
It dilates the pupil and relaxes the lens for distant vision to enhance vision in stressful conditions.
146
What is the role of the parasympathetic nervous system in the "rest and digest" response regarding the eye?
It constricts the pupil and enables accommodation for near vision, optimizing eye function for relaxation and close-up tasks.
