Diplopia, or double vision, is the primary symptom of strabismus. Nystagmus is a disorder that causes involuntarily rhythmic movements in the eye. Aphakic vision occurs when the lens of the eye is removed. Ptosis is drooping of the eyelid.

Answer to Question 2

There are 5 vertebra in the lumbar spine region. This is what the nurse should instruct the client as being fused during the surgery. There are 7 cervical vertebra, 12 thoracic, and 4 coccygeal fused into one.
