Glaucoma
1. can lead to total blindness

3. reduces visual acuity in its final stage
Glaucoma is:
Glaucoma is characterised by:

2. progressive narrowing of the visual field
3. insidious onset and concealed progression
4. an increase in intra-ocular pressure
The peripheral vision is important for:
Although we have a field of vision of more than 180° it is important during flight to use the scan ning technique, because
The time an eye needs to adapt fully to the dark is about:
The photosensitive cells beeing responsible for night vision are called:

Empty field myopia is caused by:
When a pilot is starring at an isolated stationary light for several seconds in the dark he might get the illusion that:
When you stare at a single light against the dark (f.e. an isolated star) you will find the light appears to move after some time. This phenomenon is called:
How is haze effecting your perception?
The 'Black hole' phenomenon occurs during approaches at night and over water, jungle or desert. When the pilot is lacking of visual cues other than those of the aerodrome there is an illusion of

The part of the eye that bends the light the most is:
If runway slopes downwards, what is a pilot is likely to do:
A sloping cloud formation, an obscured horizon and a dark scene spread with ground lights and stars can create an illusion
known as:
