Explore the Optics of the Human Eye
Affordable 3-D working model
Human Eye Model (OS-8477)
Explore the optics of the human eye including:
- Normal vision
- Nearsightedness
- Farsightedness
- Astigmatism
Use the included plastic lenses to create images for normal vision, farsightedness, nearsightedness and astigmatism. Additional lenses are placed in front of the eye to correct for vision problems.
Features
Use the Pupil Aperture to reduce the pupil size, or to change the shape to a “cat's eye”.
Working Model of the Human Eye: Two lenses are used to form images on the retina. Sealed tank holds water to simulate the vitreous humor.
Study the Optics of Normal Vision and Vision Correction: Use the included plastic lenses to create images for normal vision, far-sightedness, near-sightedness and astigmatism. Additional lenses are placed in front of the eye to correct for vision problems.
Fixed Corneal Lens and Interchangeable Crystalline Lens: The crystalline lens is surrounded by water (vitreous humor). By changing the crystalline lens, the eye can focus on both near and far objects.
Moveable Retina: 3 positions to demonstrate near-sightedness, far-sightedness and normal vision.
Variable Pupil Size: Students can observe the change in brightness and clarity of the image as the pupil size is reduced.
