  3. Chondrichthyes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chondrichthyes

    Regions of a Chondrichthyes brain colored and labeled on dissected skate. The rostral end of the skate is to the right. In chondrichthyans, the nervous system is composed of a small brain, 8–10 pairs of cranial nerves, and a spinal cord with spinal nerves. [11] They have several sensory organs which provide information to be processed.

  4. Hybodontiformes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybodontiformes

    Hybodontiformes, commonly called hybodonts, are an extinct group of shark-like cartilaginous fish (chondrichthyans) which existed from the late Devonian to the Late Cretaceous. Hybodonts share a close common ancestry with modern sharks and rays (Neoselachii) as part of the clade Euselachii. They are distinguished from other chondrichthyans by ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_geniculate_nucleus

    the eye on the opposite side (the contralateral eye) sends information to layers 1, 4 and 6. This description applies to the LGN of many primates, but not all. The sequence of layers receiving information from the ipsilateral and contralateral (opposite side of the head) eyes is different in the tarsier. [10]

  6. Visual pathway lesions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_pathway_lesions

    Anterior chiasmal syndrome, the lesions that affect the ipsilateral optic nerve fibres and the contralateral inferonasal fibres located in the Willebrand knee produce junctional scotoma, i.e., a combination of central scotoma in one eye and temporal hemianopia defect in the other eye.

  7. Papilledema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papilledema

    Healthy contralateral eye (left). The signs of papilledema that may be seen using an ophthalmoscope include: venous engorgement (usually the first signs) loss of venous pulsation; hemorrhages over and/or adjacent to the optic disc; blurring of optic margins; elevation of the optic disc; Paton's lines (radial retinal lines cascading from the ...

  8. Maddox rod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maddox_rod

    The test is based on the principle of diplopic projection. [1] Dissociation of the deviation is brought about by presenting a red line image to one eye and a white light to the other, while prisms are used to superimpose these and effectively measure the angle of deviation (horizontal and vertical).

  9. Relative afferent pupillary defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_afferent_pupillar...

    The Marcus Gunn pupil is a relative afferent pupillary defect indicating a decreased pupillary response to light in the affected eye. [3] In the swinging flashlight test, a light is alternately shone into the left and right eyes. A normal response would be equal constriction of both pupils, regardless of which eye the light is directed at.
