Answer to Question 1

Guided imagery
Guided imagery is a creative sensory experience that effectively reduces pain perception and minimizes reaction to pain. It draws on internal experiences of memories, dreams, fantasies, and visions; explores the inner world of experience; protects the privacy of the patient; and fosters the imagination. The goal of imagery is to have the patient use one or several of the senses to create an image of a desired result.

Answer to Question 2

B
An artificial eye pupil does not react to changes in light. Modern implants are made of glass or plastic and are porous so that the tissues of the eye grow into the sphere. Like a healthy eye, this integrated implant moves as the companion eye moves. Unless advised by the patient's eye care practitioner, the prosthesis usually is not removed unless the patient experiences discomfort, because excessive handling may cause irritation and increased secretions. The muscles and other tissues of the eye are sewn around the implant, holding it in place. The implant, therefore, is not visible.
