Lacrimal gland produces
Tears
The path of a tear from the lacrimal gland to the nasal cavity
Lacrimal duct Surface of eye Lacrimal lake Lacrimal puncta Lacrimal canaliculi Lacrimal sac Nasolacrimal duct Nasal cavity inferior to the inferior concha
How many ocular muscles move the eyeball
6
4 straight and 2 oblique
The 4 rectus eye muscles arise by a
Common tendinous ring
The tendon of the superior oblique muscle runs through a fibrocartilaginous loop call the ______ and then inserts
Trochlea
Inserts into the sclera of eyeball
What nerve innervates the superior oblique
Trochlear
What nerve innervates the inferior oblique
Oculomotor
What nerve innervates the inferior rectus
Oculomotor
What nerve innervates the lateral rectus
Abducens
What nerve innervates the medial rectus
Oculomotor
What nerve innervates superior rectus
Oculomotor
Eye muscles do not
Work alone
Inferior oblique action
Elevates and laterally deviates gaze
Action of superior oblique
Depresses and laterally deviates gaze
Action of inferior rectus
Depresses and medially deviates gaze
Action of lateral rectus
Laterally deviates gaze
Action of medial rectus
Medially deviates gaze
Action of superior rectus
Elevates and medially deviates gaze
When the eye is adducted or abducted the superior and inferior obliques work best to
Lower and raise the eye
To look directly upwards we must use both
Superior rectus and inferior oblique
To look directly downward must use both
Inferior rectus and superior oblique
Temporal fossa is superior to
The zygomatic arch
The infratemporal fossa is inferior to
The zygomatic arch
What cranial nerve is the main sensory nerve for the head and the motor nerve for the muscles of mastication
Trigeminal nerve
Lesson of the trigeminal nerve causes
Anesthesia of corresponding areas on face and paralysis of muscles of mastication
Action of temporalis
Anterior and posterior fibers elevate mandible, posterior fibers retract mandible
Origin and insertion of temporalis
O: floor of temporal fossa
I: Coronoid process of mandible
Action of the masseter
Elevates and protrudes mandible, deep fibers retrude mandible
Origin and insertion of masseter
O: zygomatic arch
I: lateral surface of mandible
