What is the area of sharpest vision in the eye?
Fovea centralis at the Macula. it is so because it contains receptor cells known as the Rods & Cones.Fovea centralis
Why is vision sharpest when the pupils of the eye are very small?
It's like looking through a pinhole.
Why is the fovea centralis important?
It is responsible for sharpest central vision. Lateral to each blind spot is the Fovea Centralis, a tiny pit that contains only cones. Consequently this is the area of greatest visual acuity, or point of sharpest vision, and anything we wish to view critically is focused on the fovea centralis.
What part of the eye is responsible seeing light?
The macula. It is the central area of the retina, where the lens forms the central part of an image. It contains a high density of cone type light sensitive receptors.
What is the part of the eye that contains light receptors?
Cells in the the retina called cones (for colour perception and in greatest numbers in the macula) and rods (for black and white).
Where is the area of acute vision in the eye?
The Fovea Centralis is a small pit located laterally to the optic disk and is the area of sharpest vision that is located in the center of the macula lutea.

What is the small depression of the retina at the back of the eye?
The fovea centralis. It is the area of sharpest vision because it contains the highest proportion of cones with almost no rods.
Why is vision sharpest when the pupils of the eye are very small?
It's like looking through a pinhole.
Are with the sharpest vision in the retine eye is?
The sharpest vision on the retina is in the central area. That is where most of the cones are concentrated that have the best detail resolution and respond better when light levels are higher in bright light. There are more rods towards the periphery of the retina. Though they are less able to distinguish detail, they are better at detecting motion and are sensitive at low light levels.
What is the focal point of the eye called and where is it located?
The fovea centralis, also generally known as the fovea, is a part of the eye, located in the center of the macula region of the retina. It's important because it's the center of the eye's sharpest vision and the location of most color perception.
Why is the fovea centralis important?
It is responsible for sharpest central vision. Lateral to each blind spot is the Fovea Centralis, a tiny pit that contains only cones. Consequently this is the area of greatest visual acuity, or point of sharpest vision, and anything we wish to view critically is focused on the fovea centralis.
What are the causes of improper sight at night?
1) the iris opens wider, thus any imperfections in the lens become more apparent. 2) the rods of the eye (which respond better to dim light) are less densely pack near the fovia of the eye (the part with the sharpest vision).

Poor vision results when the image formed by the lens of the eye is in sharpest focus in front of or behind the retina of the eye This can be corrected by?
A common way of correcting this problem is the use of corrective lenses in glasses or contact lenses
What is the name of the part of the eye that magnifies your vision?
the lens
