Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The optic nerve (CN II) is directly observed during the fundoscopic examination.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
If the patient has experienced sudden onset of eye pain, it is important not to dilate the eyes before determining whether acute closed-angle glaucoma is present because dilating the eye may increase the intraocular pressure.
