10. Laser-based - non contact - noon invasive imaging technique.






11. The light sensitive part of the eye.






12. Swelling or infection of the membrane lining the eyelids or Conjunctiva.






13. A jelly-like subastance located in the anterior chamber.






14. The Optothalmic examination of the eye by use of a slit lamp and a magnifying lens.

16. When water is retained and swelling occurs in the cornea.






17. A lens with no power.






18. As needed






19. Located behind the pupil - and is the secondary mechanism of focus - adjusting the amount of focus the light image requires before it reaches the retina.






20. Increases visual acuity because it reduces internal lens reflections.






21. Upward and diagonally






22. Provide a bigger field of vision.






23. Inward






24. Downward and diagonally






25. The portion of the optic nerve that is formed by the meeting of all retinal nerve fibers.






26. Constrictors






27. Supplies most of the tears to the eye.






28. What's it called when the cornea thins and bulges forward?






29. The lifeline into and out of the practice.

32. What lens material is the easiest to break?






33. A layer located behind the retina and absorbs unused radiation.






34. What provides the major refractive power of the eye?






35. The result of the refraction depends on the patient's ability to discern changes in clarity. This process relies on the cooperation of the Patient.






36. Dilators






37. A group of diseases that can damage the eye's optic nerve and result in the vision loss and blindness. It occurs when the normal fluid pressure inside the eyes slowly rises.






38. Downward and inward

42. Two instruments are used to test patient blood pressure.






43. Controls the focusing power of the eye by changing the shape of the lens.






44. The nerve center of the eye where light is converted into an electrical signal that travels along the optic nerve to the brain.






45. Numerous different surgeries that facilitate the escape of excess aqueous humor from the eye to lower the intraocular pressure and a few that lower IOP by decreasing the production of aqueous humor.






46. A mid-index lens material that is thinner than glass or CR-39 - free from distortion and aberration and able to be used as a safety lens.






47. Computer-assisted method of mapping the surface curvature of the cornea.






48. The chart most often used to measure acuity at distance.






49. Glaucoma causes...






50. Corrects one eye for distance and the other eye for near and can be used to correct presbyopia.
