Answer to Question 1

ANS: T
A miotic eyedrop such as 2 pilocarpine hydrochloride is used to constrict the pupil. Ophthalmic medications must be handled with care and accuracy because nearly all of them are colorless.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: F
The two segments of the eyeball are the anterior and posterior segments. The anterior segment consists of the cornea, aqueous humor chamber, the iris, and lens. The posterior segment, the portion behind the lens, contains the vitreous fluid, retina, and choroid linings.
