Eye And Orbit Flashcards
1
Q
Bones of the orbit
A
- Frontal
- Maxillary
- Zygomatic
- Lacrimal
- Sphenoid
- Palatine
- Ethmoid
2
Q
Orbital openings
A
- Optic canal
- Superior orbital fissure
- Inferior orbital fissure
3
Q
Trigeminal n. In the orbit
A
- Ophthalmic branches (V1): sensory to orbit
- Maxillary (V2): carry parasympathetic from CN VII -> lacrimal gland
A. Sympathetic: pre-synaptic (T1) -> superior cervical ganglion - synapse -> internal carotid plexus (V1) -> eye
4
Q
Fontal n.
A
Branch off ophthalmic (V1)
1. Supraorbital and supratroclear -> sensory to skin of forehead
5
Q
Lacrimal n.
A
Branch of ophthalmic (V1)
- Parasympathetic travel w/ lacrimal n. From communicating zygomatic branch (V2)
- Sensory to lacrimal and upper eyelid/tarsal plate
6
Q
Nasociliary n.
A
- Long and cohort ciliary branches carry sympathetic and somatic afferent -> eye
- Short ciliary parasympathetic from ciliary ganglion and some somatic afferent -> eye
- Anterior and posterior ethmoid branches: parasympathetic (from CN VII) and sensory -> mucosa nasal cavity, sphenoid sinus, ethmoid air cells
- Infratrochlear branch: sensory -> external nose
7
Q
Extrinsic eye muscles
A
- Superior rectus (CN III)
- Inferior rectus (CN III)
- Medial rectus (CN III)
- Lateral rectus (CN VI)
- Superior oblique (CN IV)
- Inferior oblique (CN III)
8
Q
Superior rectus m.
A
- Prox: common tendinous ring
- Distal: top of tee
- Innervation: CN III
- Fxn: primary elevation, adduction, medial rotation
9
Q
Inferior rectus m.
A
- Prox: common tendinous ring
- Distal: bottom of eye
- Innervation: CN III
- Fxn: primary depression, adduction, lateral rotation
10
Q
Medial rectus m.
A
- Prox: common tendinous ring
- Distal: medial aspect of eye
- Innervation: CN III
- Fxn: adduction
11
Q
Lateral rectus m.
A
- Prox: common tendinous ring
- Distal: lateral aspect of eye
- Innervation: CN VI
- Fxn: abduction
12
Q
Superior oblique m.
A
- Prox: common tendinous ring
- Distal: wraps around trochlea -> lateral posterior aspect of eye
- Innervation: CN IV
- Fxn: depression, abduction, medial rotation (down and out)
13
Q
Inferior oblique m.
A
- Prox: anterior/medial/inferior aspect of orbit
- Distal: lateral posterior aspect of eye
- Innervation: CN III
- Fxn: elevation, abduction, lateral rotation (up and out)
14
Q
H test
A
Active eye muscle test
- Pt abducts then elevates and depresses eyes
- Pt adducts then elevates and depresses
- Add/abd tests medial/lateral rectus
- Add + elevation = inferior oblique
- Add + depression = superior oblique
- Superior/inferior rectus m. Useless in adduction
15
Q
Eyelids
A
Skin covering superior and inferior tarsal plates w/ palpabrae conjunctiva underneath
1. Fxn:
A. Close eye: orbicularis oculi (CN VII)
B. Open eye: levator palpabrae superioris (CN III) and superior tarsal (symp from T1)
2. Tarsal (Meibomian) glands
