A patient had a CVA in the area indicated by the red x in the figure, below. What type of blindness is the
patient most likely to incur? Explain your reasoning.
Bilateral left visual field blindness
The right optic tract is damaged. All the sensory information from the left visual fields travels together
after the optic chiasm to the right side of the brain.
, A patient has a brain tumor in the area indicated by the red x in the figure, below. What type of
blindness is the patient most likely to incur? Explain your reasoning.
Left eye blindness
Left eye blindness because there is damage to the left optic nerve. Information from the left visual
field has not yet crossed at the optic chiasm. Both peripheral and nasal fields of the left eye would be
missing.
True or False: All sensory information from the optic nerves cross at the optic chiasm.
False
only medial fibers cross at optic chiasm
The ________ is controlled by the trochlear nerve.
A. Superior rectus
B. Medial rectus
C. Lateral rectus
D. Correct! Superior oblique
Your elderly patient is discussing her vision problems. She describes her vision as blurry. Following a
visual examination, her left eye deviates medially when looking straight ahead. What is most likely
causing the vision problem? Explain your reasoning.
A. CataractsB. Abducens nerve damageC. Brain tumor in the occipital lobeD. Medial rectus damageE.
Superior rectus damage
B
The abducens nerve controls the lateral rectus. Damage to the lateral rectus would cause there to be a
muscle imbalance, and the medial rectus would pull the eye medially when looking straight ahead,
causing blurry vision. (Diplopia)
Match the numbers (1-5) in the figure below with the correct terms (A-H).
