Empty field myopia*1 pointIs another name for short-sightednessis when the eyes, in the absence of visual cues, adjust to their natural focal length of 1-2mis when the eyes, in the absence of visual cues, adjust to their natural focal length of 500-1000moccurs mainly during clear day flights
Solution
Empty field myopia is when the eyes, in the absence of visual cues, adjust to their natural focal length of 1-2m. This phenomenon often occurs during clear day flights when the vast, featureless sky provides no visual cues for our eyes to focus on, causing them to default to their natural focal length.

For a person with perfect vision, light from an object is properly refracted by the eye lens to converge on a single point at the retina, forming a clear image of the object. Vision defects result from eye shape abnormalities or errors in the refractive power of the eye lens. Myopia (nearsightedness) occurs when light from a distant object is incorrectly focused in front of the retina. Hyperopia (farsightedness) occurs when light rays from a nearby object are focused beyond the retina.Many optical techniques are available to measure the refractive error of an individual to determine the necessary correction. Photorefraction is a photographic technique often used with young children because it does not require the individual to be still for a lengthy duration. When the patient is looking at the camera, a flash photograph is taken of the eye to determine the amount of light that is reflected off the retina and captured by the camera lens.In healthy eyes, all the light from the flash that enters the eye is reflected off the retina and returns back to the camera's light source. Because the camera lens does not receive this light, the pupil is completely dark in the resulting image. A myopic eye cannot properly focus the light at the retina. Due to the geometry of the eye and its lens, some of the light is reflected to the top portion of the camera lens. The camera captures an image of a pupil with a crescent of light at the top. In a hyperopic eye, the crescent appears at the bottom of the pupil. Ray diagrams for photorefraction are shown in Figure 1.Figure 1 Paths of light in photorefraction for different eyes: (A) Healthy, (B) Myopic, and (C) Hyperopic.HC.

Question 35The image of an object projected onto a fixed screen through a lens using red light is clear and focused. Using the same set-up, the image is slightly unfocused when violet light is used. This is because violet light:A.refracts more than red light.B.is more polarized than red light.C.is unaffected by spherical aberrations.D.has greater phase shifts in glass.
