eye and ear development Flashcards
the cornea is continuous with
the sclera
what is just deep to the sclera
the choroid(Vascular) then retina
what is deep to cornea
aqueous humor, iris, lens (with supspensory ligament)
when does the eye first appear
at 22 days
how is the eye first seen
as optic grooves on the side of the forebrain
The neural tube closes and grooves form out-pocketing known as what for the eye
optic vesicles
how does lens induction begin
when vesicles contact the surface ectoderm
when the vesicles contact the surface ectoderm, what doe they do
invaginate and the double walled optic cup forms
Cells of the surface ectoderm, in contact with the optic vesicle elongate to form what
lens placode
what does the lens placode develop into
the lens vesicle
what eventually happens to the lens placode
looses contact with the surface ectoderm and rests in the mouth of the optic cup
what separates the layers of the optic cup intially
intraretinal space
what eventually happens to the intraretinal space
quickly disappears and the two lays appose each other
what does the invagination of the inferior aspect of the optic cup form
choroid fissue
what allows the hyaloid artery to reach the inner chamber of the eye
Choroid fissure
what forms the future pupil
edges of the choroid fissure fuse and optic cup mouth becomes a round opening
failure of the retinal fissure to close in the 7th week leads to
Coloboma, key hole appearance of the iris
what later of the optic cup is the retinal pigment layer
the outer layer of the optic cup
layers of the neural layer f the retina
Pars optica retinae
Mantle layer
axons from neurons of deeper layers to collect on retinal surface in a fiber layer
what makes up the pars optica retinae
rods and cones
what makes up the mantle layer of the retina
generates neurons and glia of outer and inner nuclear layers and ganglion layer
what forms the optic stalk and optic nerve
Axons retinol ganglion cells converging
the anterior fifth of the inner layer of the eye consists of
Iris & Ciliary Body
the anterior 1/5 of inner layer divides into 2 separate parts with roles:
to form the inner layer of the iris
to help to form the ciliary body
the region betwen the optic cup and the overlying surface epithelium contains ___ that forms ____
mesenchym
sphincter and dilatory pupillae muscles
what happens to the pars ciliaris retinae
becomes infolded
what covers the outside of the pars ciliaris retinae
mesenchym that forms ciliary muscle to control lens curvature
what covers the inside of the parts ciliaris retinae to connect to the lens
elastic fibers known as suspensory ligaments or zonula
what happens to lens vesicle due to elongation of cells of the posterior wall
these cells elongate anteriorly and form long fibers that will fill the lumen of the vesicle
when do the primary lens fibers reach the anterior wall of the lens
7th week
what surrounds the eye during the 5th wek
loose mesenchyme with 2 layers
the inner layer of the loose mesenchyme that surrounds the eye
like pia, ultimately forms the choroid, that is vascular and pigmented
the outer layer of the loose mesenchym that surrounds the eye
dura, ultimately forms the sclera, that is continuous with the dura of optic nerve
what does the cornea come from
the anterior mesenchyme
the anterior chamber forms b/c
vacuolization of mesenchyme into 2 layers
the anterior portion of mesenchyme that forms the inner layer that is in front of the lens and iris
the iridopupillary membrane
what happens to the iridopupillary membran
ultimately disappears
the outer layer of the anterior mesenchyme of the eye forms
the substantia propria of the cornea
layers of the cornea
epithelial layer from surface ectoderm
stroma, continuous with eclera
epithelial layer, borders anterior chamber
what fills the anterior and posterior chambers
fluid, aqueous humor, ciliary processes of ciliary body
how do the anterior and posterior chamberes communicate with each other
through the pupil, from posterior to anterior,
why fluid flow from anterior and posterior chambers is important
provide nutrients for avascular cornea and lens
