Re: Accommodative response Define Please

Accommodative stimulus is the optical distance to an object, and yes,
"response" can be measured as contraction of the ciliary muscle.

The word is never hyphenated. That was a word-wrapping artifact.

As far as the article, I was a little puzzled by how significant rods can be
in normal room light. The physiologists told us that rods were pretty well
oversaturated at normal room illumination. It's why you have to wait 30-60
minutes in the dark for rods to "dark-adapt".

I want a simple definition of the term
accommodative response sometimes spelled
accommo-dative response.
Is it as simple as how much the lens adjusts trying to focus?
Thanks, Mike

The term is used in the lighting article at,
