16
Q

How does an afferent lesion affect the pupillary light reflex?

A

Ipsilateral side will not perform a direct response but will still perform a consensual response because motor innervation is still intact

17
Q

How does an efferent lesion affect the pupillary light reflex?

A

Ipsilateral side will not have pupillary muscle constriction but the contralateral side will still have a consensual response because afferents are still intact

18
Q

What comprises the outer covering of the Optic N.?

A

Meninges, continuous with meninges from the cranium

19
Q

What vessels are found running within the Optic N.?

A

Central Retinal V. and A.

20
Q

What is the conjunctiva that lines the innermost part of the eyelids?

A

Palpebral conjunctiva

21
Q

What is the conjunctiva that lines the outermost part of the eyeball?

A

Bulbar (ocular) conjunctiva

22
Q

Between what layers of the eye would a subconjunctival hemorrhage collect?

A

Bulbar conjunctiva and sclera

23
Q

Complete Ptosis results from destruction of what CN? What muscle is affected?

A

CN III

Levator Palpebrae Superioris M.

24
Q

Partial Ptosis results from destruction of what? What muscle is affected?

A

Postganglionic sympathetic fibers

Tarsal Ms.

25
Q

Ptosis as a result of Horner’s syndrome is failure of what muscle?

A

Tarsal M.

26
Q

How does papilledema present? What is it caused by?

A

Bulging optic disc

Caused by increased intracranial pressure

27
Q

What branch of the Opthlamic A. anastamoses with Middle Meningeal A.?

A

Lacrimal A.

28
Q

Sphenopalantine A. anastamoses with what arteries in the nasal cavity?

A

Anterior and Posterior Ethmoidal As.

29
Q

Occlusion of what terminal artery will result in blindness?

A

Central Retinal A.

30
Q

A patient presenting with dilated veins and small hemorrhages in the eye has occlusion of what vessel?

A

Central Retinal V.

31
Q

A patient presenting with a pale retina and a red spot in the eye most likely has occlusion of what vessel?

A

Central Retinal A.

32
Q

Where is the lacrimal gland located?

A

Lateral superior aspect of the eye

33
Q

What muscle is responsible for opening the lacrimal sac and pulling tears in?

A

Lacrimal part of orbicularis oculi M.

34
Q

Where does aqueous humor come from?

A

Ciliary processes

35
Q

Blockage of the scleral venous sinus can result in what disorder?

A

Glaucoma

36
Q

Rupture of blood vessels in the anterior chamber of the eye can result in what disorder?

A

Hyphema

37
Q

What attaches the ciliary processes to the lens of the eye?

A

Zonular fibers/suspensory ligament of the lens

38
Q

What is the action of the ciliary muscles for near vision? What is the effect on the lens?

A

Contract and decrease size of ciliary body, reduces tension on suspensory ligament

Lens become round

39
Q

What is the action of the ciliary muscles for far vision? What is the effect on the lens?

A

Relaxed ciliary muscles and increased size of ciliary body, increases tension on suspensory ligament

Flatten lens
