In Your Eyes
This is a transparent cover over the anterior part of the eye that serves several purposes, such as protection, refraction, and filtration of some ultraviolet light.
Cornea.
This is a medical condition which usually affects older adults and results in a loss of vision in the center of the visual field.
Age-Related Macular Degeneration
small dark shapes that move across your vision. They can look like spots, threads, squiggly lines, or even little cobwebs.
Floaters
Vitreous humour
Where did Carl Zeiss open his workshop for precision mechanics and optics- marking the beginning of ZEISS’ history?
Jena
This is an oval-shaped highly pigmented yellow spot near the center of the retina of the human eye and is specialized for high acuity vision.
Macula.
This is a clouding that develops in the lens capsule, varying in degree from slight to complete opacity and obstructing the passage of light.
Cataract.
This condition causes reduced vision in one eye due to abnormal visual development early in life. The affected eye often wanders inward or outward. This generally develops from birth up to age 7 years. It is the leading cause of decreased vision among children.
Lazy eye (amblyopia)
It is a type of small pupil syndrome that causes weak pupillary dilation and a stretchy iris. It poses a risk for complications that can occur during cataract surgery. Name the syndrome.
Intraoperative floppy iris syndrome (IFIS)
Which physicist did Carl Zeiss recruit in 1866 to help him improve microscope?
Ernst Abbe
This is the vascular layer of the eye, containing connective tissue, and lying between the retina and the sclera.
Choroid.
This is a condition of the eye where the light that comes in does not directly focus on the retina but in front of it. It is also known as near-sightedness.
Myopia.
The distance between the corneal endothelium and the anterior capsule of the crystalline lens.
Anterior Chamber Depth (ACD)
The technique with an Add-On IOL consists on the implantation of the primary IOL in the capsular bag and the secondary IOL in the ciliary sulcus. What is this technique.
Piggyback technique
What are the four ZEISS values that form the backbone of our culture?
Serve, Empower, Act, Win
The circumferential suspensory ligament that connects the lens of the eye to the ciliary body.
Ciliary Zonule
This is a vision condition that causes blurred vision due either to the irregular shape of the cornea or the lens, which prevents light from being properly focused on the retina.
Astigmatism.
This is a small spring-like device used during cataract surgery to help dilate the pupil.
Malyugin Ring
When did Carl Zeiss open his workshop in Jena?
1846
This is a circular channel in the eye that collects aqueous humor from the anterior chamber and delivers it into the bloodstream via the anterior ciliary veins.
What is the canal of Schlem
This is a condition in which distant objects are usually seen clearly, but close ones do not come into proper focus. "Farsightedness" occurs if your eyeball is too short or the cornea has too little curvature.
Hyperopia.
It is a genetic disorder of the eyes that causes loss of vision. This condition makes cells in the retina break down slowly over time. symptoms include - trouble seeing at night and decreasing periferal vision.
Retinitis Pigmentosa
In closed angle glucoma, intraocular pressure increases because of forward displacement of this part of the eye against the cornea resulting in the inability of the aqueous fluid to flow from the posterior to the anterior chamber.
What is the iris.
Which product marks the starting point of ZEISS Medical Technology about 112 years ago?
Slit Lamp
