| axons of what cells form the optic nerve? | |
| this extraocular muscle moves the eye up | |
| true or false: the ciliary muscle contracts to release tension on the lens, making it more round, enabling it to focus on closer object | |
| disconjugate gaze causes double vision also known as ______. | |
| True or False: Fibers from the lower part of the retina that subserve the superior visual field course anteriorly into the temporal lobe, as Meyer's Loop, before heading back to th | |
| A turn of the head to the right, will activate the _____ abducens nuclei, producing a gaze contralateral to the rotation. | |
| both eyes moving in the same direction is known as ____ movement | |
| Which vestibular nucleus is involved in sending tonic signals to the abducens nerve and midbrain vertical eye network for the vestibulo-ocular reflex? | |
| The inability to look in one direction | |
| True or False: If the tonic inhibition of the ipsilateral abducens nucleus by the medial vestibular nucleus decreases that will cause the eye to deviate to the side contralateral t | |
| Palsy of what nerve is characterized by the affected side looking down and out | |
| slow conjugate movement of the eye which allows for tracking of a moving object or of a stationary object while we are moving | |
| clinical term for lazy eye... can cause blindness in one eye because the person only uses one eye | |
| True or False: The smooth pursuit initiated in the left hemishere of the cerebrum controls smooth pursuit to the left. | |
| connections between the LGN and the primary visual cortex are known as what? | |
| What reflex is responsible for changing position of the eyes and maintaining vision throughout the movement of the head? | |
| Lesion in the left frontal eye field would cause an inability to gaze in what direction? | |
| this extraocular muscle moves the eye down | |
| occurs when eyes smoothly pursue one target then quickly saccade to pick up the next target (allows us to pick up sequential moving targets | |
| voluntary _____ originates in the angular gyrus | |
| lesion in the right abducens nucleus would cause an inability for a patient to gaze to the right, but would the patient still be able to accommodate or converge on a close object? | |
| accomodation and the pupillary reflex are produced by neurons in what nucleus? | |
| this extraocular muscle moves the eye down and in... intorsion | |
| signals from the Left frontal eye fields project to the ___ parapontine reticular formation | |
| this syndrome is characterized by an up-gaze palsy, light near dissociation, and convergence-retraction nystagmus. Commonly caused by Pineal gland | |
| A lesion to what structure would cause a gaze palsy ipsilateral to the affected side that can be overcome by the vestibulo-oculomotor reflex. | |
| lesion in the left PPRF would cause an inability to gaze in what direction? | |
