PREVIOUS AND NEXT TERMS
--------------------------------------

Cone Rod Degeneration
Also called cone-rod dystrophy. Leads to a loss of visual acuity between 20/25 to 20/400 – legal blindness. First there is a loss of cone photoreceptors followed by a loss of rod photoreceptors. Visual fields may be restricted, abnormal color vision and photophobia. No treatment is available.

Conjunctivitis
An inflammation of the thin transparent tissue layer within the eye containing blood vessels. The conjunctiva covers the outer surface of the eyeball, starting at the limbus (edge of the cornea) and extends backward to form a recess under each lid before coming forward and covering the inside surface of each eyelid. It contains mucous secreting cells that allow the eye to move smoothly in various directions. It also helps lubricate the cornea during blinking. A contagious and treatable condition.

Cornea
The front part of the eye that acts as a window for the entrance of light rays. It is attached to the other outer coat of the eye, the sclera; the white part of the eye. The cornea provides a significant amount of focusing power for the eye (the rest is provided by the lens). Because it has many nerve fibers, an injury or foreign body causes significant pain and discomfort.

Cortical Blindness
A person with cortical blindness will have normal eyes and normal optic nerves but, nevertheless, will not be able to see. The cause of the blindness is with the cortex or surface of the brain that contains 32 or more sites for visual information processing. More recently, the preferred term for such individuals is cortical visual impairment, because many people will not be totally blind but will exhibit unusual visual losses; for example, they may be blind to stationary objects but be able to see moving objects.

Cover Test
A test for a muscle imbalance. While the person is looking at a distant object, one eye is covered and then uncovered (cover-uncover). This is repeated on the other eye. Finally it is performed on both eyes, covering one then the other (alternate-cover). If one or both eyes shift during this test, there is a problem with alignment of the eyes. The misalignment with the eyes often cannot be seen with both eyes opened.

Cipro IV

Cupping of the optic disc
A depression of the optic nerve where the optic nerve leaves the eye. In glaucoma, the cup may be enlarged indicating damage to the nerves leading from the eye to the brain.

Cycloplegia
A paralysis of the ciliary muscles following the instillation of eye drops. This produces a loss of accommodation or focusing ability. With the lens relaxed, a better estimate of the refractive error is possible in most cases. Most cycloplegic eye drops also dilate the pupil. Cycloplegia may last from a few hours to several days, depending on certain factors such as skin color – the lighter the longer.

Ciflox
A potent broad spectrum oral antibiotic that, when first introduced, represented a breakthrough in fighting infectious diseases. Ciflox is also known as Cipro. Produced by Bayer.

Cloxazolam
A tranquilizer.

Clotiazepam
A tranquilizer.
