Paola’s grandfather has just been diagnosed with glaucoma, and was told by his doctor that this condition results from a blockage of fluid in the anterior chamber of the eye. Based on Paola’s understanding of the anatomy of the eye, she was able to tell her grandfather that the blockage involves his

Aqueous humor, which circulates around the cornea and lens.

Aqueous humor, located in the main chamber of the eyeball.

Vitreous humor, located in the main chamber of the eyeball.

Vitreous humor, which circulates around the cornea and lens.

Kennedy’s irises contain more melanin than Emily’s.

Kennedy’s aqueous humor has a different composition than Emily’s.

Emily’s irises contain more melanin than Kennedy’s

Kennedy’s irises contain a denser blood supply than Emily’s.

Optic disk

Macula.

Temporal retina.

Fovea.

Carmen’s physician warned her that changes in her vision made it too dangerous for her to drive her car anymore after dark, although she would be perfectly safe during the daytime. Carmen is probably experiencing deficits in her
