ANS and Eye Flashcards
miosis
-pupillary CONSTRICTION
-circular muscle
-activated by parasympathetic (M3)
Mydriasis
-pupillary DILATION
-RADIAL muscle
-activation of sympathetic (a1)
Iris
-ring of muscles oriented in 2 diff directions to control amount of light entering
Glaucoma
-increased intraocular pressure
-decreased outflow through trabecular network
-increased secretion from ciliary body epithelium
Ciliary muscle (eye)
-pilocaprine agonist
-contraction outflows aqueous humor
-decrease intraocular pressure
Pilocaprine
-M3 AGONIST
-agonist of ciliary muscle
Ciliary body
-brimonidine agonist
-inhibit production and increase outflow of aqueous humor
-decrease intraocular pressure
Brimonidine
-a2 agonist
ciliary epithelium
-NE-beta
-secretion of aqueous humor
-Beta ANTAgonist
-decrease intraocular pressure
timolol
beta antagonist
prostaglandins (latanaprost)
-increase outflow of aqueous humor
