CN V Flashcards
3 nerves of the ophthalmic division
- frontal
- lacrimal
- nasocilliary
branches of the frontal nerve
- supraorbital nerve
2. supratrochlear nerve
branches of the lacrimal nerve
none
branches of the nasociliary nerve
- posterior ethmoid n
- anterior ethmoid n
2a. external nasal n - infratrochlear n
- long ciliary nn (2-4 branches)
- short ciliary nn (8-12 branches), via ciliary ganglion
supraorbital nerve:
- nucleus/ganglion type
- function
- branch of what nerve
supraorbital nerve: LATERAL
- sensory
- frontal sinus and skin superior to lateral orbit, including lateral upper eyelid
- branch of frontal nerve
supratrochlear nerve:
- nucleus/ganglion type
- function
- branch of what nerve
supratrochlear nerve: MEDIAL
- sensory
- frontal sinus and skin superior to medial orbit, including medial upper eyelid
- branch of frontal nerve
lacrimal nerve
- nucleus/ganglion type
- function
- branch of what nerve
- parasympathetic function
lacrimal nerve
- sensory
- conjunctiva, lacrimal gland, skin of upper eyelid
- lacrimal nerve, no branches
- parasympathetic function: communicates with zygomatic nerve of V2, parasympathetic “hitch hikers”
posterior ethmoid nerve:
- nucleus/ganglion type
- function
- branch of what nerve
posterior ethmoid nerve
- sensory
- ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses
- branch of nasociliary n
anterior ethmoid nerve:
- nucleus/ganglion type
- function
- branch of what nerve
anterior ethmoid nerve
- sensory
- ethmoid sinus and nasal cavity
- branch of nasociliary
external nasal nerve:
- nucleus/ganglion type
- function
- branch of what nerve
external nasal nerve
- sensory
- skin at apex of nose
- branch of ethmoid nerve, which is a branch of the nasociliary nerve
infratrochlear nerve:
- nucleus/ganglion type
- function
- branch of what nerve
infratrochlear nerve
- sensory
- conjunctiva, lacrimal structures and skin of bridge of nose and eyelids
- branch of nasociliary
long ciliary nn:
- nucleus/ganglion type
- function
- branch of what nerve
long ciliary nn
- sensory
- sclera and cornea
- branch of nasociliary
short ciliary nn, via ciliary ganglion
- nucleus/ganglion type
- function
- branch of what nerve
short ciliary nn, via ciliary ganglion
- sensory
- ciliary body and iris
- branch of nasociliary
