Q

What is the lacrimal caruncle?

A
  • small reddish body at the medial corner of the eye

- contains modified sebaceous and sweat glands

24
Q

What is the raised area upon the entrance to the lacrimal puncta?

A

lacrimal papilla

25
Q

Where does the lacrimal puncta drain to?

A

the lacrimal lake

26
Q

Where is the lacrimal sac located?

A

in the lacrimal fossa of lacrimal bone

27
Q

Describe the production and drainage of tears.

A
  1. tears are produced by the lacrimal gland via parasympathetic supply
  2. they was across the eyes and are drained into the lacrimal lake via the lacrimal puncta
  3. the tears then pass through the lacrimal canaliculi into the lacrimal sac
  4. the tears are then drained via the nasocrimal duct and exit via the inferior meatus in the cavity
28
Q

Describe the surface anatomy of the eyeball - pupil, iris, slcera

A

pupil - black circular opening in the eye which controls the light let into the eye

iris - the coloured part of the eye which contains 2 muscles, sphincter pupillae which contracts the pupil and dilator pupililie which dilates the pupil

sclera - opaque/ white protective part of the eye

29
Q

What three components make up the vascular layer of the eye?

A

choroid
iris
ciliary body

30
Q

What is the ciliary body?

A
  • made up of smooth muscles and blood vessels which connects the choroid to the iris to complete the vascular layer
31
Q

What produces aqueous humor?

A

ciliary body

32
Q

What is the fibrous layer of the eye considered to be?

A

connective tissue which covers the cornea and the sclera

33
Q

What makes up the sensory-neuro layer of the eye?

A

retina

34
Q

What is the optic disc?

A

this is where the optic nerve joins with the retina and this creates a blind spot

35
Q

What is located near the center of the retina?

A

macula

36
Q

What is the highly concentrated cone area?

A

foeva centralis

37
Q

What is the humor that suppose the retina and the lens which cannot be replaced?

A

Vitreous humor

38
Q

What is the structure and function of aqueous humor?

A

liquid which fills anterior and posterior chambers of the eye which supplies the non-vascular components of the eye

39
Q

Where is aqueous humor drained to in the eye?

A

canal of schelmm

40
Q

what is the build up of undrained aquous humor in the eye?

A

glaucoma

41
Q

What are the 6 (7) extra-ocular muscles?

A

4 rectus muscles
2 oblique muscles
leavator palpebral superioris

42
Q

What do the rectus muscles (and superior oblique muscle) arise from

A

common tendinous ring

43
Q

What is the only muscle that does not arise from the common tendinous ring? and where does it aris?

A

inferior oblique

arises from the floor

44
Q

What nerve supplies lateral rectus?

A

CN VI

45
Q

What nerve supplies superior oblique?

A

CN IV

46
Q

What does CN III supply?

A

Medial, Inferior , Superior Rectus
Inferior Oblique
Levator palpebrae superioris (+ symapthetic)

47
Q

What muscles are being tested when the eyeball is full abducted?

A

inferior oblique
medial rectus
superior oblique

48
Q

What muscles are being tested when the eyeball is full adducted?

A

superior rectus
lateral rectus
inferior rectus

49
Q

Where does venous blood from the eyes drain?

A

ophthalmic branch of the facial nerve → cavernous sinus

50
Q

What are the branches of the ophthalmic branch of the internal carotid?

A

anterior and posterior ethmoidal
supratrochlear
supraorbital
lacrimal

51
Q

What artery of the eye is an end artery?

A

central artery of retina

52
Q

Define end artery?

A

an artery in with insufficient anastomoses to maintain viability of tissue of occlusion occurs

53
Q

Map out the ophthalmic nerve division

A

ophthalmic → frontal → supraorbital
ophthalmic → frontal → supratrochlear
ophthalmic → lacrimal
ophthalmic → nasociliary → posterior ethmoidal
ophthalmic → nasociliary → infratrochlear
ophthalmic → nasociliary → anterior ethmoidal → external nasal

54
Q

What is the upper eyelid supplied by?

A

Va

55
Q

What is the lower eyelid supplies by?
