A

outmost barrier of cornea

23
Q

what is the conjuctivia

A

part of the fibrous tunic, superficial, extends off eye like a curve

24
Q

what are the main parts of the vascular tunic

A

choroid
ciliary body
Iris

25
Q

what are the 3 parts of ciliary body

A

ciliary muscles
ciliary processes
suspensory ligament

26
Q

ciliary muslces def

A

intrinsic eye muslces that control lens shape

27
Q

ciliary processes def

A

epithelium that makes aquous humor

28
Q

suspensory ligament def

A

connect cilary muscles to the lens

29
Q

where is the cilariy muscles location

A

in the ciliary body of the vascular tunic of the eye

30
Q

where is the choroid location

A

vascular tunic

31
Q

where is the cornea location

A

in the fibrous tunic of the eye

32
Q

iris def

A

intrisnic eye muscles that control diameter of puil

33
Q

what are the 3 parts of iris

A

pupil
radial muscles
circular muslces

34
Q

what do radial muslces do

A

make it bigger (pupil)
fxn of iris

35
Q

what do circular muscles do

A

make it smaller (pupil)
fxn of iris

36
Q

what is apart of the nervous tunic

A

retina

37
Q

what does the retina contain

A

photoreceptors

38
Q

what are the 2 photreceptors. what do each see

A

cones . acuity/color
rods . low vision/b+w

39
Q

what is the copora lutea

A

part of the neural part of the retina
is mostly cones
has the highest visual activity

40
Q

what is in the fuvea centralis

A

cones only

41
Q

what is the optic disk

A

blind spot, where the optic never exits

42
Q

what does the optic disk lack

A

photoreceptors

43
Q

what does the fovea centralis look like

A

that liitle indent in the circle

44
Q

what does the copora lutea surround

A

the fovea centralis

45
Q

what is the main part of the anterior cavity

A

aqueous humor

46
Q

how is aqueous humor formed and resorped

A

enters at posterior chamer , through pupil, and then out through the anterior chamer

47
Q

what is the function of aqueous humor

A

nourish the cornea/lens

48
Q

what is in the posterior cavity

A

vitreous humor

49
Q

where is aqueous humor
vs
vitreous humor

A

anterior cavity
vs
posterior cavity

50
Q

function of the vitreous humor

A

maintian shape of eye
hold retina against choroid

51
Q

funciton of lens

A

focus light on retina
refraction of light

52

little bending
flatter lens

53
Q

closer needs more or less bending

A

more bending
rounder lens
