Q

what is the orbital septum/ where is it attached?

A

Periorbita - part that covers bones projects forward and becomes the septum. It also moves backwards and fuses with the dura
mater of the ONH.

ie. the orbital septum is continuous with the periorbita and the periosteum of the skull.

medially it attaches to the posterior lacrimal crest

inferior nasal fornix and bulbar conj

27
Q

What condition/ drug affects meibomian glands?

A

accutane ( decreases the size and oil selection leading to dry eye)

rosacea

sebaceous gland carcinoma ( seen more on the UL because contains more meibomian glands)

28
Q

OIS

A

lack of oxygen to the carotid artery, leads to entire eyeball problem

NOTE: diff from sleep apnea!!

29
Q

what is holocrine, apocrine and merocrine secretion?

A

holocrine: whole cell is shed into the lumen

apocrine: part of the plasma membrane buds off and enters the lumen. for secretion

merocrine: cells secrete substances via exocytosis. The cells are intact

30
Q

what are the sensory nerves of the eyelids?

A

upper eyelid - frontal (supraorbital/supratrochlear) and lacrimal branches of V1

lower eyelid: infraorbital and zygomaticofacial branches of V2

infratrochlear nerve (branch of the nasocilliary nerve - branch of V1) innervates medical aspect of the upper and lower eyelids

31
Q

blood supply of the eye - CRA, PCA, ACA

A

ICA -> ophthalmic artery -> CL MS LSE

CRA-> supplies ON from point to entry to the inner retinal layers

PCA -> SPCA & LPCA
- SPCA piece the ONH around it and then travel in the suprachoridal space (between Choroid & sclera)
-anastomose in the sclera and make the circle of zin - haller (supplies laminar part of the ON)
- supply the choroid up to the equator
- supply the sclera
- LPCA travel in the suprachoroidal space to the ciliary body
- supplies the sclera
- join with the ACA to form MACI (supplies iris and CB)
- once reaches the ORA, send recurrent branches back to supply the choroid anterior to the equator

ACA
- ICA -> Ophthalmic -> muscular (7) supplies the recti muscles ( LR only one with 1) -> become the ACA (which start after muscles are supplied by muscular artery till past the recti muscles) -> bifurcate (some go under the bulbar conj) or some piece the sclera and join the LPCA to make MACI )
- note: before making MACI, recurrent branches are sent off to supply the choroid anterior to the equator

32
Q

blood supply of the eye - lacrimal artery

A

Ophthalmic -> lacrimal artery
- supplies the lacrimal gland -> then pierces the orbital septum and terminates as the lateral palpebral arteries (2) .

These supple the skin & conj of the lateral 1/2 of the upper and lower eyelids

33
Q

blood supply of the eye - supraorbital artery

A

passes forward above the levator palpebrae superiors and supplies the (LPS, SR, SO)

exits orbit via supraorbital foramen

supplies the skin, muscles of the forehead and scalp

joins with the superficial temporal and supratrochlear arteries in the scalp

34
Q

medial palpebral artery

A

branch off of the ophthalmic artery

supply: the medial 1/2 of the upper and lower eyelids and conj.

35
Q

palpebral arcades

A

made from the joining of the medial and lateral palpebral arteries.

marginal palpebral arcades - closer to the eyelid

peripheral palpebral arcades - supply formic, posterior conj. also join with the ACA to supply anterior conj

36
Q

facial artery

A

branches off of the ECA prices circulation to the superficial areas of the eyelid

37
Q

Why do patient’s with uveitis experience circumlimbal injection and decreased aqueous humor production?

A

because the ACA provide circulation to the bulbar conj and the CB

38
Q

lymph nodes

A

both mimic the veins which mimic the arteries

located in the conj

lateral lymphatics drain into the parotid/pre-auricular lymph node

medial lymphatic drain into the submandibular lymph node

39
Q

what causes a swollen lymph node?

A

PET PIG

P - parunauds oculoglandular syndrome
E - EKC (#1 reason)
T - trachoma

P - pubic lice
I - inclusion conjunctivitis
G - gonorrhea

40
Q

does bacterial conjunctivitis cause pre-auricular lymphadenopathy?

A

NOOO

41
Q

What prevents back flow from the lacrimal sac onto the eye?

A

valve of reosenmueller

42
Q

what events nasal fluid to back flow back into the eye?

A

valve of hasher

43
Q

what bone is the lacrimal gland located in?

A

frontal bone

44
Q

how does the lacrimal gland produce tears?

A

via parasympathetic innervation from

CN 7-> Vivian nerve -> pterygopalatine Ganglion -> lacrimal gland

45
Q

what is another name for the pterygopalatine ganglion?

A

sphenopalatine gagnolino

46
Q

What is the lacrimal papilla?

A

puncta îs located here and keeps the puncta open

47
Q

What is the spiral of tillaux? What does this mean for the muscles?

A

the recti muscles insertion in the orbit form this

the closer the limbus the muscles attaches, the stronger its pull

48
Q

Where does the medial rectus insert?

A

5.5 mm from the limbus

ie. this is the longest

49
Q

Where does the lateral rectus insert?

A

6.9 mm from the limbus

50
Q

Where does the inferior rectus insert?

A

6.5 mm from the limbus

51
Q

Where does the inferior rectus insert?

A

6.5 mm from the limbus

52
Q

Where does the SR muscle insert? How is it related to the LPS?

A

7.7 mm from the ring. This is the shortest

sheath covering SR is connected to sheath covering LPS and the superior conj fornix. Why eyelid retracts when looking up

53
Q

EOMs compared to other muscles in our body

A

more blood and nerves

faster and more fatigue resistant

54
Q

Adipose tissue compartments in the orbit

A

intraconal - ie. in the muscle cone of the 4 recti muscles (separates recti muscles from the ON)

extraconal - b/w the EOMs and wall

55
Q

what recti originate from the dural sheath surrounding the ONH?

A

SR and MR

this is why during optic neuritis (inflammatory response against the optic nerve’s myelin) we get pain on eye movement due to the pulling of these muscles on the ON’s inflamed coverings

56
Q

What in the origin and insertion for the superior oblique?

A

origin: lesser wing of the sphenoid . Note moves forward and goes through the troche before inserting on the superior lateral globe behind the equator

57
Q

what is the trochlea?

A

physiologic origin of the SO

58
Q

What in the origin and insertion for the inferior oblique?

A

ordinates anteriorly at the maxillary bone and inserts on the inferior lateral globe behind the equator

59
Q

how much can the eye abduct and adduct?

A

adduct 51-54 degrees
abduc 23 degrees

60
Q

when the eye is adducted , what are the muscles used for depression and elevation?

what about when the eye is abduct?

A

adduct: SO and IO

abduct: SR and IR

61
Q

Versions follow which law?

A

hering’s law for yolked muscles

62
Q

What inhibits versions?

A

trauma

INO

63
Q

what is INO and what causes it?

A
