Warm Up • Name the outer, middle and inner coats of the eye. • Explain briefly how concave glasses corrects nearsighted vision. • Explain why your eyes may get puffy and watery during allergy season.
Notes • Lectures posted on Blackboard Ms. Ewing under “anatomy”. • Quiz Monday or Tuesday on anatomy and physiology of Eye, ear and what ever we finish. Also depends if I can get the equipment sorted for the eye lab. • Going to circle back on Nervous system.
After the Eyeball • Optic Chiasma contains axons carrying impulses to brain. • Each eye processes by opposite brain half
Visual Fields • Each eye sees slightly different view. • Visual perception overlaps • Binocular vision provides depth perception. • Predators have eyes in this style, facing forward to locate prey. • Prey often have eyes to the side to increase visual field
Loss of binocular vision • Hemianopia is the condition where only one side is damaged. • Loss of stereoscopic vision • Fail to see objects on one side. • Food left on one side of the plate. • Partial blindness in one eye can be compensated for.
Eye Muscles • Three major muscles control vision • Internal (controlled by autonomic nervous system) • Ciliary • Alters lens • Radial and circular muscles of iris • Controls pupil size • External • Control eyeball movement
Pupils • Two functions • Restrict Light • Sharpen Focus • Photopupillary reflex • Restrict light from damaging photoreceptors • Accommodation pupillary reflex • Provided to provide more acute vision.
Reading produces eyestrain • Ciliary muscles contract • Iris constricts • Extrinsic muscles must converge the eyes. • RESULT: eye strain • Look up and stare into the distance • Warm compresses from a warm washcloth relax muscles
The Ear Second most complex sense
Animals have different hearing designs • Ears with muscles to direct hearing. • Stationary ears
Outer Ear • Auricle – shell shaped structure called the “ear” • External Auditory Canal • Ceruminous glands produce cerumen • Sound waves hit tympanic membrane or eardrum
Middle Ear • Tympanic cavity contains air • Know the three bones or Ossicles • Malleus (Hammer) • Incus (Anvil) • Stapes (Stirrup) • Transmits vibrations from Tympanic Membrane to Oval Window
Inner Ear • Protected behind the eye socket • Bony chambers • Cochlea • Vestibule • Semicircular canals • Filled with perilymph fluid • Membranous labyrinth sacs inside the labyrinth
