Q

near vision

A

parasympathetic stimulation via CN III causes:

ciliary muscle contract
relaxation of zonular fibers
lens becomes more spherical

Q

what happens to the lens with age?

A

thickness of lens increases

ability to accommodate is restricted (after age 40)

require reading glasses

24
Q

optic disc

A

where the optic nerve hits the back of the eye

25
distant vision
absence of nerve stimulation meaning: ciliary muscle relaxed zonular fibers tense lens stretched thin
26
parasympathetic innervation to lacrimal apparatus
secretomotor innervation from CNVII
27
macula lutea
"yellow spot" apparent only when examined with red-free light
28
conjunctival sac
space bounded by the palpebral and and bulbar conjunctiva
29
medial rectus
adduction
30
lacrimal gland
produces tears
31
Pupillary light reflex
1. Lightstimulatesretina,CNII:Optic n. 2. AfferentsfromOpticn.pass through optic chiasm, synapse at pretectal nuclei 3. PretectalneuronssignalEdinger- Westphal nucleus 4. EWNsendsparasympathetic signals through CN III: Oculomotor n. (efferent) to sphincter pupillae m.
32
Pupil dilation is under what control?
sympathetic control
33
superior and inferior tarsi
dense band of connective tissue
34
Palpebral
covers the inner surface of the eyelid
35
lacrimal lake
pinkish yellow reservoir of tears
36
iris
thin, contractile diaphragm with a central hole (pupil) --> transmits light
37
Name the extra ocular rectus muscles
superior rectus inferior rectus medial rectus lateral rectus
38
tarsal glands
secretes lipids to lubricate the eyelid
39
inferior oblique
elevation, abduction, extorsion
40
What controls the thickness of the lens (focus)?
contraction and relaxation of the ciliary body
41
superior oblique
depression, abduction, intorsion
42
innervation of the rectus muscles
oculomotor n. (CN III) | abducent n. (CN VI) - innervates the lateral recuts
43
Horner's syndrome
lack of sympathetic activity which manifests as: pupil constriction drooping of superior eyelid vasodilation absence of sweating
44
Conjunctiva
transparent mucous membrane
45
Superior rectus movements
elevation, adduction, intorsion
46
Detached retina
Usually results from fluid seepage between neural and pigmented layers of retina after trauma Presents as flashes of light or floating specks
47
fovea centralis
area of most acute vision
48
lacrimal canaliculi
takes tears from the lacrimal lake to the lacrimal sac to the nasolacrimal duct to nasal cavity
49
lacrimal apparatus
contains the lacrimal gland, duct, and canaliculi
50
obicularis oculi
muscle around the eye the allows for facial expression
51
components of the vascular layer
choroid ciliary body iris
52
inferior rectus movements
depression, adduction, extorsion
53
lateral rectus
abduction
54
Name the extra ocular oblique muscles
superior oblique | inferior oblique
55
There is movement around three axes. What are they?
vertical transverse anteroposterior
56
Sclera
white of the eye; dense connective tissue
