Visual appearance

This morning began with a lecture by Nathan Pelsor of the Tally Eye Institute. Nathan spoke about careers in eye care. According to Nathan, there are three main professions in the eye care field. The first of the three is an Optician. This is the individual who fits glasses and contacts on to patients. The next career is an Optometrist. Optometrists are the eye care professionals who conduct eye exams and write prescriptions. The final profession that Nathan talked about was an Opthamologist. Opthamologists

Andy Goldsworthy (Rivers and Tides) he is a very unique artist to start with, he uses medium in his art works that is found within its surroundings and turn it into a work of art. He likes to be always connected with nature, he loves the sea and river in connection with time as his concept. His work are in the patterns of snake like or river like shapes and an egg shape pattern. I like his work because it makes me feel at peace with nature which gives me a relaxing effect especially with the sound

Think about a blind person walking alone, consider the dangers, the person could walk into citizens, get hit by a vehicle and trip over. You can help blind people around Queensland by donating money to Guide Dogs Queensland (GDQ). In Australia 90,000 Australians are blind and 300,000 Australians have low vision, condition, which is when people have less than 1% of sight. GDQ gives freedom to citizens who are blind or low vision. Think about the blind or low vision citizen, they have no peace, freedom

cortically blind (caused most often by blood flow loss to the occipital cortex, where we process our conscious visuals) due to lesions in their striate cortex, or V1, having the ability to respond to visual stimuli that is not consciously seen. Patients reportedly have blindness, but respond to visual stimuli. The studies are mainly conducted on patients who are "blind" on only one side of their visual field. The articles I have had assistance in choosing are; Seeing without Seeing? Degraded Conscious Vision

Disease or Disorder of the eye: Cataract A cataract is a clouding of the lens of the eyes, causing the vision to be blurry. It is caused by protein clumping together in the lens forming a small clouded area; even though it isn’t painful within time, it can grow larger making it harder to see. It is commonly found in older people. It can occur in either or both eyes; however cannot spread from one eye to another. In age-related cataract can affect your vision in two ways—clumps of protein or lens

AS’s visual system to allow AS to maintain clear and comfortable binocular vision at distance and near. The primary cause of her distance and near blur is accommodative in nature, so the treatment is aimed at managing her accommodative system to a point where her visual system is able to recognise and respond to a defocussed image1,4. The aim of the treatment can be achieved by prescribing a near add or vision therapy1,2. At this point in time, VT was not recommended. However, once her visual system

The avid artistic viewer in America in the 1930s saw Hilla Rebay’s collection at the Guggenheim museum. They analyzed concluded non-objective art stood at the pinnacle of the art world. Simple to understand, it breaks down the wall between cultures. Non-objective art requires no cultural or theological lens. When viewing non-objective art, the observer deduces the following: In modern day, non-objective art offers a sense of relief and beauty unbeknownst to the rest of the art scene. Therefore,

3.1 Anatomy of the two pathways As visual information exits in the occipital lobe, it then follows two main pathways. The dorsal pathway begins with V1, goes through V2, then to the dorsomedial area (DM/ V6) and Visual area MT (middle temporal/ V5) and to the posterior parietal cortex. The ventral pathway travels from V1, goes through V2, then through visual area V4, and finally to the inferior temporal cortex (IP cortex). 3.2 History before Milner and Goodale's division I would like to

Vision is a two syllable word. Vision itself can mean several things. For instance, vision can be referring to a person’s dream, but here vision determines a person’s sight. In the English dictionary vision may be defined as “the act or power of sensing something with your eyes; sight”. There are many ways that vision can clearly be defined, yet the most important word to understand when thinking of vision is “sight”. Both terms are the same, however they complement one another.
