Q

posterioir cavity

A

vitreous fluid

24
Q

posterioir chamber

A

aqeuous fluid

25
Q

blind spot

A

optic disk
-there is no retina there

26
Q

eye layers

A

retina to choiroid to sclera

27
Q

fovea

A

only cones

28
Q

vascular tunics (MIDDLE)

A

choiroid and ciliar body and iris
-blood vessels, intrinsic and lymphatics
-regulate light entering eye
-secrete aqueous fluid
-accomodation
-pigment of eye

29
Q

fibrous tunic (OUTER LAYER)

A

cornea and sclera
-attach extraocular muscles

30
Q

nueral tunic

A

neural part (inner) and pigmented part (outer)
RETINA

31
Q

accomodation caused by

A

cilliary body contraction
-changes focal length to focus on diff diatances
-18 dioptres

32
Q

anterioir cavity

A

made of anterioir ad posteiroir chamber
-aqueous

33
Q

aqueous fluid enters through?

A

posterioir chamber and flows trough pupil area and enters through anterioir chamber through canal of schlemm and enters venous circulation

34
Q

canal of schlemm

A

maintain homeostasis by drainging aqueous fluid to systemic n.s.

35
Q

build up of fluid in schlemm

36
Q

detached retina

A

aquious fluid is not putting enough pressure against the retina

37
Q

vitrious fluid

A

support eye shape, lens, retina

38
Q

limbis stem cells

A

keep cornea functioning

39
Q

layers of the cornea

A

stratified squamous, stroma and posterioir epithelium

40
Q

lens

A

epithelium and laminated fibers
-has germinal zone, capsule, fibers
-no organelles bc would block light
-refracts light
-10mm diameter

41
Q

lens fibers

A

secondary anucleated
-terminal differentiation

42
Q

best color vision

A

fovea centralis

43
Q

optic nerve

A

cranial nerve 2

44
Q

do all fibers cross at the chiasm

45
Q

what regulates light enetering eye globe

A

iris whihc is in front of the eye

46
Q

what hold the lens

A

suspensory ligaments

47
Q

does the lense grow through life

48
Q

lens parts

A

capsule, epithelium and fibers (fibers on anterioir)

49
Q

does the lense have nerves, bv or c.t

50
Q

crystaline lense capsuel

A

basement membrane completely surroinding it
-made of collagen 4 whihc is made by the epithelium

51
Q

lense epithelium

A

maintain homeostasis of pressure and everything
-nak pump and ions
-progineter for new lens fibers

52
Q

lens fiber

A

4-7 micro diameter and 12mm long
-honecomb

lens if

A

64 water and 35 protein

55
