Sclera white part of eye
Cornea transparent fibrous CT layer; covers iris & pupil
Cornea allow light inside; regeneration & refraction
Sclera continuous w/ dura mater (meninges) of the brain; for shape and protection
Vascular tunic Choroid, Ciliary body, iris, & suspensory ligaments
Choroid highly vascular CT blood supply (oxygen & nutrients) and just underneath the sclera; allow blood vessels for retina (photoreceptors are high-energy cells)
Ciliary body a muscular structure that allow to focus light in back of the eye & holds/control lens (allow lens to change shape)
Iris colored part of eye and is between cornea and lens
Iris part of the choroid that extends over the lens; group of muscles that open/close pupil
Suspensory ligaments hold lens in place and in front of ciliary body
Suspensory ligaments allow lens to stretch/pull to focus light on the retina
Ciliary body surrounds the lens
Pupil between 2 sides of the iris; the window for the light
Iris & Pupil light regulation
Lens change shape to allow light to focus on the retina
Cataracts lens opacities (light can't pass in); due to genetics and substances; treatment: surgery replacement
Color blindness missing more than 1 cone color pigments; X-linked (more common in male)
Eyebrow prevent sweat & other particles from eye
Eyelid protect from abrasions
Conjunctiva transparent mucous membrane located of the inner surface of each; connect eyelids to eyeball

Pigmented cells absorb light
Bipolar cells location nose and eye
Photoreceptor stimulated by light to generate AP
Sensory receptor cells/ structures that detect sensations
sensation level of activation of sensory receptor @ the level of the stimulus
Perception central processing of sensory stimuli into a meaningful pattern
Rods more sensitive to light (need only small #)
Rhodopsin pigment light sensitive that switches its form depending # of light
Form A Rhodopsin accumulates in dark/dim light
Form B Rhodopsin collapses in bright light
AP signal switch from Form A to Form B rhodopsin
Rods in the Dark to Light active; rhodopsin accumulates & collapses @ the same time; always transitioning (so that we will always be able to see) -> inactive; Rhodopsin collapse due to bright light
Cones in the Dark inactive; rhodopsin accumulates -> active; Rhodopsin collapse (all suddenly stimulate & send million of AP at once sending white flash and eye hurt); transition starts again
Rods in the light to dark inactive; Rhodopsin collapsed/broken down (form b) -> active; rhodopsin switch to form A then breakdown to release AP (build up of Rhodopsin takes time (no AP, darkness/ no viion)
Cones in the light to dark active; Rhodopsin is in transitioning -> inactive; no more AP & Rhodopsin will accumulate
