PREVIOUS AND NEXT TERMS--------------------------------------
Cortical Blindness
A person with cortical blindness will have normal eyes and normal optic nerves but, nevertheless, will not be able to see. The cause of the blindness is with the cortex or surface of the brain that contains 32 or more sites for visual information processing. More recently, the preferred term for such individuals is cortical visual impairment, because many people will not be totally blind but will exhibit unusual visual losses; for example, they may be blind to stationary objects but be able to see moving objects.
Cover Test
A test for a muscle imbalance. While the person is looking at a distant object, one eye is covered and then uncovered (cover-uncover). This is repeated on the other eye. Finally it is performed on both eyes, covering one then the other (alternate-cover). If one or both eyes shift during this test, there is a problem with alignment of the eyes. The misalignment with the eyes often cannot be seen with both eyes opened.
Cipro IV
Cipro I.V. (ciprofloxacin) is one of the most prescribed fluoroquinolone antibiotics.
Cupping of the optic disc
A depression of the optic nerve where the optic nerve leaves the eye. In glaucoma, the cup may be enlarged indicating damage to the nerves leading from the eye to the brain.
Cycloplegia
A paralysis of the ciliary muscles following the instillation of eye drops. This produces a loss of accommodation or focusing ability. With the lens relaxed, a better estimate of the refractive error is possible in most cases. Most cycloplegic eye drops also dilate the pupil. Cycloplegia may last from a few hours to several days, depending on certain factors such as skin color – the lighter the longer.

Cloxazolam
A tranquilizer.
Clotiazepam
A tranquilizer.
Clonazepam
