The variable quantity of the specific refraction of eyes means greatly big to the burden of eyes.On this point, described below.
People makes the light for entering eyes from object be imaged on the retina by adjusting lenticular expansion, can make eye The focal involution of eyeball to carry out visual identity to object.Lenticular expansion is adjusted by ciliary muscle, so as to adjust eyes Specific refraction.
For example, in the case of the focal involution object a long way off of eyes, the ciliary muscle relaxation of eyes, crystalline lens becomes It is thin.In this case, even if the object of continuous observation distant place, due to ciliary muscle relaxation, therefore it is also small to the burden of eyes.
On the other hand, in the case of focal involution object on hand, the ciliary muscle tenses of eyes, crystalline lens becomes It is thick.In this case, when continuous observation object nearby, due to ciliary muscle tenses, therefore it is big to the burden of eyes.Due to Reading and long lasting for observation object nearby in a period of, ciliary muscle is always nervous, therefore is terminating reading The anxiety of ciliary muscle also continues and cannot relaxed afterwards, causes to turn into the state (pseudo-myopia) with high specific refraction.Also It is to say, the variable quantity of specific refraction means greatly big to the burden of eyes before and after reading.
Thus, as shown in figure 5, the variable quantity of the specific refraction of eyes before and after the reading of the more short then subject of line-of-sight distance Mean that line-of-sight distance is more short then bigger to the burden of eyes more greatly.
In the present embodiment, the evaluation of illumination light (lighting environment) has been carried out using the situation as metewand.
