Eyeball Flashcards
Orbital Margin
Zygomatic, Frontal, Maxilla
Apex of Optic Cavity
Optic Foramen
Optic foramen/canal transmits
- Optic Nerve (CNII)
2. Opthalmic Artery - opthalmic branch of the internal carotid - blood supply to the entire eye
Superior orbital fissure
- Oculomotor N - CNIII
- Trochlear N - CN IV
- Abducens N - CN VI
- Opthalmic div of trigeminal (CN V1)
- Suprior Opthalmic Vein
Inferior Orbital Fissure
- Inferior Opthalmic Vein
- Infraorbital NAV
- Zygomatic N
Supraorbital Foramen
NAV of the same name
Infraorbital Canal
- Infraorbital N
- Zygomatic N
- both are cutaneous branches of the Maxillary N (CNV2)
* Infraorbital N enters through the inferior orbital fissure, runs along the floor of orbit, enters canal, then leaves through infraorbital foramen
Anterior Ethmoidal Foramen
NAV of the same name
*branch of nasociliary n, branch of opthalmic n of the trigeminal
Posterior Ethmoidal Foramen
NAV of the same name
**branch of nasociliary n, branch of opthalmic n of the trigeminal
Name for duct that gets encrircled by bone -> tear gland
Nasolacrimal Duct
Zygomaticofacial Foramen
considered w/ orbital region due to the transmission of the zygomatic nerve through the inferior orbital fissure into the orbital cavity and out through formaina
Zygomaticotemporal foramen
considered w/ the orbital region due to transmission of the zygomatic nerve through inferior orbital fissure into the orbital caivty and out through the foramina
What is the general consensus on the origin of the extrinsic muscles of the eye?
All of them originate from the annular tendon w/ the exception of the inferior oblique, which originates from the orbital plate of the maxilla
Levator palpebrae superiorirs
elevates upper eyelid
Superior rectus
up and in
Inferior rectus
down and in
Medial rectus
Adducts towards midline
