Bony Orbit Flashcards
Identify the bones that make up the orbit
Identify the important passage points through the orbit
What is the difference bewteen the orbital axis and the visual (optical) axis?
23 degrees
How many layers are there to the eyeball?
What are their components?
- Outer: fibrous
- sclera
- white of eye
- maintains shape of eye
- attachment point for muscle
- cornea
- transparent
- avascular
- sclera
- middle: vascular
- choroid
- heavily pigmented to prevent scattering of light
- ciliary body
- helps lens stay in position (accomodation)
- iris
- constrictor pupillae
- dilator pupillae
- choroid
- Retina
- Neural layer
- optic disk
- macula
- pigmented layer
- Neural layer
What is the clinical term for pupil contstriction? Which autonomic system controls this action?
What is the clinical term for pupil dilation? Which autonomic system controls this action?
- Constriction
- miosis
- parasympathetic
- Dilation
- mydriasis
- sympathetic
Identify the compartments of the eyeball and their components.
What is the impact of lens shape when the chilary muscles contract?
when the ciliary muscle is contracted, the zonular fibers are relaxed, and the lens becomes more conved (fatter) which provides focus for near objects.
What are the layers of the eyelids?
- Thin skin
- obicularis oculi
- palpebral part
- orbital septum (Periosteum to tarsi)
- tarsus
What muscle is indicated?
What is its function?
Attachment?
Innervation?
Levator palpebrae superioris (LPS)
- What is its function?
- elevates upper eyelid
- Attachment?
- Innervation?
- cranial never III
What muscle is indicated by the photo?
What is its function?
Attachment?
Innervation?
Superior tarsal
- What is its function?
- helps keep eyelid open (helps LPS)
- Attachment?
- origin: LPS
- Innervation?
- smooth muscle
- sympathetic
What are the squiggly lines indicated it the photo?
Tarsal glands
What is the name of the mucus membrane tha tlines the sclera and the eyelid? What is it called when the different parts meet?
Conjunctivia
- Bulbar: lines sclera
- palpebral: lines eyelids
- fornicles:
where they meet: canjunctival fornix
Describe the route of the lacrimal apparatus and identify the structure.
From the gland to the duct, superior conjunctional fornix
2 gaps = puncta
superior/inferior canaliculi to the lacromal sac, which drains into the
nasolacrimal duct
What are the 3 axis of eye movemet?
vertical, anterior/posterior, and transverse
Identify the extrinsic muscles of the eye shown in the image.
