AP PSYCHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The process by which certain muscles (called ciliary muscles) function to change the focal length of the eyes so that the image is clearly formed on the retina is called accommodation of the eye.

Detailed explanation-2: -The ocular structures involved in accommodation include the ciliary muscle, lens, and pupil.

Detailed explanation-3: -The capacity of the eye lens to adapt its focal length throughout the order to clearly concentrate rays from a distant and a close object here on the retina is called the eye’s accommodating power. Human eye lenses are translucent and crystalline.

Detailed explanation-4: -Power of Accommodation: The ability of eye lens to adjust it’s focal length is called accommodation with the help of ciliary muscles. It helps to change the curvature of eye lens by contracting and relaxing and hence changes it’s focal length so that we can see the objects clearly placed at different positions.
