Q

what is a blow out fracture and what. bone is usually “blown out”?

A

the medial and inferior walls of the orbit are THIN AS FUCC.

a punch to the eye can cause things to prolapse through the broken maxillary bone (inferior wall) and protrude into the maxillary sinus. this can also send blood into the ethmoid sinus, located behind the zygomatic bone.

Q

Parasympathetics to the eye run with what nerve?

Sympathetics to the eye run with what nerve?

A

Parasympathetics: Oculomotor nerve

Sympathetics:
1. Come from T1-T4 -> synapse in. the superior cervical chain ganglion -> internal carotid plexus -> Nasociliary nerve (from the ophthalamic branch of the trigeminal N) -> goes to LPS (skeletal muscle to open eye and innervated by oculomotor N) -> innervates TARSUS M (smooth muscle to keep eye open) and dilator papillae.

41
Q

how do we keep our eyes open?

A
  1. Come from T1-T4 -> synapse in. the superior cervical chain ganglion -> internal carotid plexus -> Nasociliary nerve (from the ophthalamic branch of the trigeminal N) -> goes to LPS (skeletal muscle to open eye and innervated by oculomotor N) -> innervates TARSUS M (smooth muscle to keep eye open) and dilator papillae.
42
Q

Parasympathetics to the eye path

pupillary light reflex requires what CN

A

2 (to see) and 3 (to constrict)

52
Q

how does pupillary light reflex twerk

A
  1. CNII senses light; will synapse in pretectal nucleus
  2. Sends signals to Edinger-Westphal
  3. Preganglionic parasympathetic neurons will travel with CN III and synapse in the ciliary. ganglion
  4. Short ciliary n (postganglionic parasympathetic nerve fibers) then activate the pupillary constrictor muscle.
53
Q

diff between direct and consensual pupillary. reflex

A

direct: affected eye constricts

Consensual: opp will constrict at. the same time

54
Q

What CN does the corneal reflex need?

2. Sympathetics (CN 7/facial) to close eye

55
Q

how does corneal. light reflex twerk

A
  1. When receptors in cornea detect touch - travel in CN V (trigeminal) -> synapse of trigeminal sensory nucleus
  2. cells from trigeminel nuclei -> synapse with the facial nucleus.
  3. Neuron in facial nerve will innervate -> orbicularis oculi (ocular and palpebral parts) -> EyE BLINKS!

A

d/t damage of CN3

destruction of CN3 or one of the branches -> paralysis of LPS -> cannot open eye

63

75
Q

Will damage to the lacrimal nerve cause an inability to produce tears?

A

Damage to the lacrimal nerve will only lose tears if it happens near to the lacrimal gland - after the communicating branch attaches.

SO if we lesion anything trigeminal: no.

describe tear production

A
  1. Facial nerve arises off the brainstem.
  2. Enters the internal acoustic meatus with CN VIII.
  3. Gives off muscular branch.
  4. Joins tympanic plexus.
  5. Gives off a branch called the greater petrosal nerve.
  6. Greater petrosal nerve comes out of the hiatus for the greater petrosal nerve.
  7. Runs along the foramen lacerum and meets up with the deep petrosal nerve, forming the N. of the pterygoid canal.
  8. Dives under the sphenoid bone and travels thur
  9. comes our of pterygopalatine fossa
    Joins the pterygopalatine ganglion and synapses.
    10 Hops onto the zygomatic branch of V2 (maxillary branch of the trigeminal nerve) which runs in the inferior orbital fissure.
