- Retina Lobe
- Olfactory Lobe
- Optic Nerve

About This Quiz

The eye is one of the five sense organs i. E. It is one of those organs that helps us interact with our environment and fellow humans. Try this to see how much you know about this delicate part of our body.

2.

A doctor that specializes in the treatment of the eye is called ______________
- Gynecologist
- Optician
- Dentist
- Surgeon
Correct Answer

A. Optician

Explanation

An optician is a healthcare professional who specializes in the treatment and care of the eye. They are trained to prescribe and fit eyeglasses and contact lenses, as well as provide advice on vision correction and eye health. Unlike a gynecologist, dentist, or surgeon, an optician specifically focuses on the eyes and their related conditions and treatments.

The dense outer coating of the eyes that forms the white is called ________________
- Cornea
- Pupil
- Sclera
- Retina
Correct Answer

A. Sclera

Explanation

The dense outer coating of the eyes that forms the white is called the sclera. The sclera is a tough, fibrous tissue that covers the entire eyeball except for the cornea. It provides protection and support to the eye, maintaining its shape and structure. The sclera also serves as an attachment point for the muscles that control eye movement.

_________________ is shortness of sight.
- Myopia
- Astimagtism
- Hypopia
- Hyperopia
Correct Answer

A. Myopia

Explanation

Myopia is the correct answer because it refers to shortness of sight, also known as nearsightedness. This condition causes difficulty in seeing objects that are far away, while close objects can be seen clearly. Myopia occurs when the eyeball is too long or the cornea is too curved, causing light to focus in front of the retina instead of directly on it. This results in blurry distance vision.

5.

______________________ is the liquid substance in the eye.
- Retina fluid
- Vitreous humor
- Aqueous Humor
- Optic fluid
Correct Answer

A. Aqueous Humor

Explanation

The correct answer is Aqueous Humor. Aqueous humor is a clear, watery fluid that fills the front portion of the eye, between the cornea and the lens. It helps maintain the shape of the eye and provides nutrients and oxygen to the surrounding tissues. It also helps to remove waste products and maintain the intraocular pressure, which is important for proper eye function.

6.

The dark circular opening in the eye is called ____________
- Conjuctivitis
- Cornea
- Pupil
- Irish
Correct Answer

A. Pupil

Explanation

The dark circular opening in the eye is called the pupil. It is located in the center of the iris, which is the colored part of the eye. The pupil regulates the amount of light that enters the eye by dilating or constricting in response to the intensity of the light. When there is low light, the pupil dilates to allow more light to enter the eye, and when there is bright light, the pupil constricts to reduce the amount of light entering the eye.

Rate this question:
7.

The outermost coat of the pupil is called ______________________
- Cornea
- Iris
- Sclera
- Cone cells
Correct Answer

A. Cornea

Explanation

The outermost coat of the pupil is called the cornea. The cornea is a transparent, dome-shaped structure that covers the front part of the eye. It acts as a protective layer and helps to focus light entering the eye onto the retina. The cornea also plays a crucial role in maintaining the shape of the eye.

8.

Our eyes reacts to light and _________________.
- Speedd
- Moist
- Pressure
- Heat
Correct Answer

A. Pressure

Explanation

Our eyes react to light and pressure. When light enters our eyes, it stimulates the photoreceptor cells in the retina, which then send signals to the brain to process the visual information. Additionally, our eyes also have a built-in mechanism to detect changes in pressure. This is evident in situations such as when we feel pressure changes during takeoff and landing in an airplane or when we experience changes in altitude. Therefore, pressure is a factor that affects our eyes along with light.

9.

___________________ controls the flow of light into the eye.
- Retina
- Pupil
- Iris
- Lens
Correct Answer

A. Retina

Explanation

The retina is a layer of tissue located at the back of the eye that contains light-sensitive cells called photoreceptors. These photoreceptors convert light into electrical signals that are then sent to the brain via the optic nerve for processing. Therefore, the retina plays a crucial role in controlling the flow of light into the eye by capturing and processing the incoming light.

___________ and ___________ cells in the retina help perceive color.
- Wood and Cane
- Sugar and Salt
- Rod and Cone
- Ganglion and Tarsals
