10. Which statement is true about central vision? A. It is about twelve degrees of our visual field B. It is our side vision C. It allows us to estimate distance and understand details in the path ahead D. It helps us detect light and motion
The correct answer is C. It allows us to estimate distance and understand details in the path ahead.
Central vision helps us in identifying details when we look straight ahead. We normally use central vision when reading, seeing objects, and doing other daily activities. In specific words, it helps us in describing a detailed interpretation of what is in front of our eyes regarding colors and objects. When the central vision works it uses the macula, which is located in the retina. The macula has cones, which are responsible for viewing colors and details. These cones are sensible to the light, and with this reaction to the light is how they produce a detailed description of what we have in front of our eyes.
