Q

Iris

A

colored diaphragm seen through cornea

24
Q

Lateral & medial angle (canthi) of the eye

A

angles of the palpebral commisure

25
Q

Lateral Rotators (extorsion) of the eye

A

Superior Rectus Inferior Rectus

26
Q

Lesion of CN IV

A

Should not be able to look inferiorly when eye is adducted

27
Q

Lesion of VI

A

Cannot abduct the eye

28
Q

Lining of the bones of the orbital cavity

A

Periorbita - continuous with dura mater at the optic canal & superior orbital fissure

29
Q

Medial Rotators (intorsion) of the eye

A

Superior Oblique Inferior Oblique

30
Q

Orbital Septum & Clinical Correlate

A

Fibrous membrane from the orbital margin to the tarsus, continuous with pericranium *Fire wall that prevents spread of infection from superior fascia of eyelid to the interior of the orbit

31
Q

Order of drainage of the lacrimal gland to the nose

A

1) Lacrimal gland 2) Lacrimal lacrimalis (depression in eye that collects fluid) 3) Lacrimal papilla (projection on each eyelid) 4) Lacrimal punctum (opening on the papilla) 5) Lacrimal canaliculus - duct that drains from punctum 6) Lacrimal sac 7) Nasolacrimal duct

32
Q

Orthophoria

A

exact ocular balance

33
Q

Palpebral Comissure

A

Unites eyelids medially & laterally

34
Q

Palpebral conjunctiva:

A

mucosa covering posterior surface of eyelid: turns back on itself at the superior and inferior conjunctival fornices, where it becomes continuous with the bulbar conjunctiva

35
Q

Palpebral fissure

A

opening between lids

36
Q

Pupil

A

aperture at center of iris

37
Q

Sensory/Motor Limbs of the Blink (Corneal) Reflex

A

Afferent: CN V1 Efferent: CN VII (via orbicularis oculi muscle)

38
Q

Structure of the optic nerve

A

not actually a nerve, it is an extension of the brain covered by meninges

39
Q

Structure of the Orbit:

A

Medial walls are parallel, 25 mm apart Lateral walls are at right angles Length of both walls= 50 mm Eyeball is 25 mm long, half as long as orbit

40
Q

Structures that are found on the level of the orbits on an axial CT/MRI

A

*Ethmoidal sinus laterally *Sphenoid sinus posteriorly *Foramen spinosum, carotid canal, foramen ovale, jugular foramen, foramen magnum, crita galli/cribiform plate

41
Q

Sty

A

ciliary gland duct is blocked

42
Q

Tarsal gland

A

modified sebaceoius glands within a tarsus *Oily secretion forms surface film to reduce evaporation of tears

43
Q

Tarsal muscles

A

smooth muscle within tendon of the leavator palpebrae superioris *attaches tarsus to the upper eyelid *Sympathetic innervation from internal carotid plexus–> elevate eyelid

44
Q

Tarsus

A

Semilunar plate of dence CT between the palpebral conjunctiva and the superficial fascia

45
Q

Testing the Inferior Oblique

A

Look medially and up

46
Q

Testing the Inferior Rectus

A

Look laterally and down

47
Q

Testing the Superior Oblique

A

Look medially and down

48
Q

Testing the Superior Rectus

A

Look laterally and up

49
Q

Through which opening will a tumor of the middle cranial fossa enter the orbit from?

A

The superior orbital fissure

50
Q

Through which opening will a tumor of the temporal or infratemporal fossa enter the orbit from?

A

Inferior orbital fissure

51
Q

What are the bony boundaries of the optic canal?

A

Between the lesser wing and body of sphenoid

52
Q

What are the bony boundaries of the superior orbital fissure?

A

Between the greater and lesser wings of sphenoid

53
Q

What is the affect on the eye of a tumor in the ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses?

A

erosion of the ethmoid and sphenoid bones and affect the optic nerve

54
Q

What is the communication between opthalamic vessels & arteries/veins of the face?

A

The superior opthalamic vein enters into the cavernous sinus (inferior opthalamic empties into pterygoid venous plexus) and communicate with the facial and supraorbital veins anteriorly –> can get meningitis this way

55
Q

What is the consequence of pushing an object through the roof of the orbit?

A

It will enter the anterior cranial fossa

56
Q

Where should a patient look when a surgeon is trying to enter the orbit?

A

laterally- gives more room
