6J10.10eye modelO-5b.1The standard take apart eye model.
6J10.21water flask model of the eye34-2.1A large flask filled with water, a little fluorescein, and some external lenses make a model of the eye in near and far sighted conditions.
6J10.21eye modelsL-65A spherical lens filled with milky water represents the eyeball. Use a large lens in front of the sphere to show inverted image, near and far sightedness.

6J10.30blind spotL-58Move a white cross toward a white spot on the blackboard while the students close one eye.
6J10.40inversion of image of retinaPIRA 1000
6J10.40inversion of image on retinaL-59A small tube has three holes in a triangular pattern drilled in one end and a single hole in the other. Hold the triangular end near the eye and the pattern appears inverted.
6J10.50astigmatismL-64Look at a chart of radial black lines.
6J10.55eyeglassesL-66Project an image of concentric circles crossed by radial lines. Place a lens and then a correcting lens over the projection lens.
6J10.60chromatic aberration of the eyeL-63A purple filter is mounted in front of a straight filament lamp.
6J10.80resolving power of the eyePIRA 1000
6J10.80resolving powerL-86The limit of resolving two filaments of an auto headlamp is 25 - 30 feet. ALSO - show slides of the "Navicula" made with green and UV light. Reference.

6J10.81resolving powerDisc 23-09The camera zooms in on a vertical series of back illuminated double slits, each separated by half the distance of the preceding pair.
6J10.85Computer generated Sayce chartAJP 58(6),552A valuable background discussion on the resolution of the eye and a computer generated Sayce is shown. An external slit is used to stop down the eye pupil.
6J10.90locating images by parallax34-1.14An arrangement is shown for locating real and virtual images by parallax.
