Q

branches of oculomotor artery

A

central artery of retina and after piercing dura matter it gives lacrimal artery

24
Q

central retinal artery

A

first is below optic nerve then peirces the dura matter of the nerve and runs forward till it reaches optic disk
end artery
occlusion of this artery results in blindness

25
branches from lacrimal artery
1. branches to lacrimal gland 2. 2 zygomatic branches 3. lateral palpebral to supply eyelids 4. a recurrent meningeal artery which leaves the medial cranial fossa through superior orbital fissure 5. branch to muscles of orbit
26
branches from main trunk of ophthalmic artery
1. posterior cilliary ( long and short) supplied iris and choroid anterior cilliary which given from the branches supplying the muscles 2. supratrochlear and supraorbital supllies the skin of forehead 3,. ant and post ethmoidal suplllies ethmoidal air sinuses and a branch of ant ethmoidal supplies a part of your nose 4. lateral palberal supplies eye lids 5. dorsal nasal supplies upper part of your nose
27
opthalmic veins
sup ophthalmic: above ophthalmic nerve passes through superior orbital fissure and drains into cavernous sinus communicates anteriorly with supraorbital and angular vein in ophthalmic: below ophthalmic nerve branches off from lacrimal sac, eyelids, orbital muscles either joins with superior ophthalmic or drains into cavernous sinus communicates with pterygoid plexus of vein's by passing through inferior orbital fissure
28
lymphatics of orbit
preauricular lymph nodes
29
nerves of the orbit
1. optic (II) 2. ciliary ganglion 3. oculomotor and trochlear (III AND IV) 4. branches of ophthalmic (V1) and maxillary divisions of trigeminal (V2) 5. abducent (VI) 6. sympathetic nerves
30
optic nerve relations to orbit
1. apex of eyeball the nerve is surrounded by recti muscles ciliary gnaglio is present between lateral rectus and optic nerve 2. central artery and vein of retina pierces the nerve 3. superiorly crossed by ophthalmic artery nasocilliary nerve and superior ophthalmic vein 4. inferiorly crossed by nerve to medial rectus 5. near eyeball nerve is surrounded by fat which has cilliary nerve and vessels
31
spread of infection to cavernous sinus
due to anastomose of facial veins fand ophtlamic veins from the orbital and nasal regions
32
optic neuritis
pain in or behind the eye on ocular movements | papilleoedema is less but loss of vision is more
33
papilloedema
when optic disc is swelled up
34
retrobulbar neuritis
when there is no papilloedema only loss of vision then it retrobulbar neuritis
35
ciliary ganglion roots
parasympathetic, sensory and sympathetic
36
parasympathetic ciliary ganglion roots
arsises from the nerve to inferior oblique preganglionic fibers that begin in ediger westphal nuscleus relay in the ganglion post ganglionic passthrough short cilliary nerves and supply the sphincter pupillae and ciliaris
37
sensory root of ciliary ganglion
arises from nasocilliary nerve and does not relay
38
sympathetic root of ciliary ganglion
arsis from internal carotid sheath postganglionic arsis from the superior cervical ganglion they leave from short ciliary nerves and supply the blood vessels of eyeball and dilator papillae
39
ophthalmic divisions of trigeminal nerve
1. frontal - supra orbital and supra trochlear 2. nasociliiary- branches to nasociliary ganglion 2-3 long cilliary nerves ant and post ethmoidal infratrochlear 3. lacrimal - branch to upper eyelid and secretomotor to the lacrimal gland
40
lacrimal nerve
enters the orbit through lateral part of superior orbital fissure anteriorly has communication with zygomaticotempora ( recieves its secretomotor fibers to gland though greater petrosal through communication with zygomaticotemporal) supplies upper eyelid, conjunctiva and the gland to the gland it has sensory fibers
41
frontal nerve
largest division of trigeminal enters the orbit through the lateral part of superior orbital fissure divides into supratrochlear and supra orbital
42
supratrochlear
leave the orbit above the trochlea | supplies the upper eyelids, conjunctiva and the skin on the forehead above the root of the nose
43
supraorbital
emerges from the orbit through supraorbital foramen divides into medial and lateral branches supplies the conjunctiva, central part of upper eyelid, skin over the forehead upto the vertex or lambdoid suture and frontal air sinuses
44
nasociliary nerve enters orbit thorugh and terminal branches are
medial part of superior orbital fissure and terminal branches are infra trochlear and anterior ethmoidal
45
communicating branch to nasocilliary ganglion
makes the sensory root often mixed with sympathetic root
46
long cilliary fibers
supply sensory fibers to cornea, iris ciliary body and also trasmit some sympathetic fibers to dilator pupillae
47
posterior ethmoidal
leave through posterior ethmoidal foramena nd supply the ethmoidal and sphenoidal sinuses
48
infratrochlear
emerges though the anterior ethmoidal foramen and supplies the conjunctiva, lacrimal sac, caruncle, medial ends of eye lids and upper part of the external nose
49
anterior ethmoidal
emerges from anterior ethmoidal foramen goes into the nose through a slit in the side of crista gali gives off two internal nasal branches medial and lateral to mucosae of the nose and comes off from the lower part of the nose as external nasal and supplies the lower half of the nose
50
infraorbital nerve
branch of maxillary nerve enters the orbit through inferior orbital fissure runs on the roof of maxillary sinus then to infraorbiral groove, canal and then entrs the face through infraorbital formaen and gives off palpebral nasal and labial branches
51
branches of IO nerve
middle superior alveolar nerve anterior superior alveolar nerve terminal branches: labial nasal and palpebral
52
middle superioe alveolar nerve
arises from infraorbital grove and supplies the upper premolar teeth
53
anterior superior alveolar nerve
arises from infraorbital canal and supplies the upper incisors and canines, maxillary sinus and anteroinferior part of nose where it communicates with the anter ethmoidal and anterior palatine nerves
54
terminal branches of IO
supplies a great part of face and the mucosa's membrane of upper lip and cheek
55
zygomatic nerve
branch of maxillary nerve given off the pterygopalatine fossa gives off 2 branches zygomaticotemporal and zygomaticofacial and the communicating branch to lacrimal gland which has secretomotor fibers are given off from the zygomaticotemporal branch
56
dialator puppilae of iris is supplied by
ophthalmic nerve, nasocilliary and long cialiary nerve
57
other sympathetic nerves enter the orbit
plexus around opthalmic artery directly thoigh internal carotid sheath enters through superior orbital fissure and goes to the ciliary ganglion filaments through oculomotor, abducent, opthalmic and trochlear
