Instruction
In this topic you will learn about what healthy eyes look like and signs of eye health problems.
It is important to recognize what healthy and unhealthy eyes look like as part of sensory screening.
Parts of the eye
The parts of the eye that can be seen from the outside include:
- Eyelids (top and bottom)
- Eyelashes
- Coloured part of the eye
- White part of the eye.
Other parts of the eye are also involved in seeing. These are not included as they are not checked in screening.
Activity
Look at the examples of healthy eyes in the pictures below.
Note the following characteristics:
- Eyelids and eyelashes are free from crust or pus
- No watery or sticky discharge
- The white part of the eye appears white
- The coloured part of the eye is clear (not milk coloured/cloudy)
- Both eyes are looking in the same direction.
