Q

What is the posterior chamber of the anterior segment of eye between and what does it contain?

A

Between iris and suspensory ligaments - contains aqueous humour

31
Q

Where is the posterior segment of the eye?

A

Behind the lens - 2/3rds of the eye

32
Q

What does the posterior segment of eye contain?

A

Contains vitreous body which has vitreous humour. The vitrous body is common location for floaters

33
Q

What is clouding of the lens called?

A

A cataract

34
Q

How does aqueous from posterior chamber get into anterior chamber to nourish the cornea?

A

Passes through pupil

35
Q

Once aqueous has been through the pupil - where does it get reabsorbed?

A

Into scleral venous sinus (canal of schlemm) at iridocorneal angle

36
Q

What is the posterior area in the retina where light is focused?

A

Fundus

37
Q

What three structures does the fundus contain in the retina?

A
  1. Optic disc
  2. Macula
  3. Fovea
38
Q

What structure in the fundus of the retina is the point of CN II formation, only point of entry for blood vessels and axons of CN II and is the blind spot?

A

Optic disc

39
Q

What do the central artery of the retina and the central vein of theretina travel through?

A

Optic nerve

40
Q

What does the macula of the fundus of the retina contain?

A

Greatest density of cones

41
Q

What is the fovea?

A

Centre of the macule, depression, 1.5mm diameter and area of most acute vision

42
Q

What does complete interuption of flow in a retinal artery branch/retinal vein cause?

A

Loss of an area of visual field corresponding to the area of ischaemia

43
Q

What does complete interruption of flow of the central artery (

A

Monocular blindness

44
Q

What are the three layers of the retina from posterior to anterior?

A
  1. Photoreceptors
  2. Ganglion cells lie anterior to the photoreceptor cells
  3. Axons of the gangliong cells lie anterior to the ganglion cell and photoreceptor cells
45
Q

Where do the retinal veins and retinal arteries lie?

A

Anterior to the retina

46
Q

Why is the optic disc termed the blind spot?

A

Because there are no photoreceptors in it

47
Q

Where is light from objects in the right visual field processed by?

A

The left primary visual cortex

48
Q

What arteries branch off the opthalmic arterty to supply the eye?

A

Ciliary arteries

49
Q

What type of artery is the central artery of the retina?

A

An end artery

50
Q

What is the only vein draining the retina?

A

The central vein

51
Q

Where does the orbit drain anteriorly into?

A

The facial vein

52
Q

What drains mainly into the superior opthalmic vein?

A

The inferior opthalmic vein

53
Q

Where does most venous drainage from the orbit eventually go?

A

Cavernous sinus via the superior orbital fissure

54
Q

How many rectus muscles are there?

A

4

55
Q

Where do all 4 rectus muscles originate from?

A
