Q

Parts of the nervous coat

25
The retina is composed of how many layers?
10 layers | Innermost 9 are neural in nature
26
Cells of the pigmented layer of the retina
Pigment epithelium, non nervous, SIMPLE CUBOIDAL EPITHELIAL CELLS melanocytes
27
Termination anteriorly
Scallop
28
Termination of nervous retina
Ora serrata
29
Beyond the ora serrata the continuation of nervous retina will be __________
SIMPLE CUBOIDAL EPITHELIUM | will cover any aspect of ciliary body and iris
30
The inner lining of the ciliary and iris is a double layer of ____________
Neural and non neural simple cuboidal epithelial cells
31
Region of ciliary body
Pars ciliaris retina
32
Region of iris
Pars iridis retina
33
The continuaiton of the nervous retina is *non pigmented* over ___________, but reaching the _____ it becomes *pigmented* too
Ciliary body, iris Sa ciliary body, only outer is pigmented Sa iris, yung double layer is pigmented (inner)
34
Bends the light so that the focus falls exactly or close to the fovea centralis
Refractive media
35
Refractive media
Cornea Aq humor Lens Vitreous
36
Most powerful refractive media
Cornea
37
Responsible for sharp central vision | Located in the center of the macula region of the retina
Fovea centralis
38
Not dynamic; gradually circulates ( found in both ant and post border of the eye
Aq humor
39
Flexible; assumes more convexity or flattened
Lens
40
Transparent gelatinous body of the chambers
Vitreous humor
41
Remnant of hyaloid artery
Hyaloid canal
42
Chambers of the eye
Anterior chamber Posterior chamber Viterous chamber
43
Bounded anteriorly by cornea, posteriorly by the iris and lens
Anterior chamber
44
The posterior chamber is bounded by
Ant: iris Post: zonular ligaments of the lens / suspensory ligaments of the lens
45
The vitreous chamber is bounded by _____
Ant: lens and ligaments Post: retina
46
Thickest posteriorly, fading anteriorly
Sclera
47
Why is the posterior part of the sclera its weakest spot?
It is perforated by fibers of cranial nerve 2, optic nerve
48
Junction bet cornea and sclera
Limbous
49
Thin loose vascularized connective tissue | It has episcleral veins
Episclera
50
Bulk of sclera
Collagen fibers, connective tissue
51
Transition zone bet sclera and choroid Here you will see melanocytes and elspastic fibers It you see this it means you are near the choroid
Lamina fuscia
52
5 layers of the cornea
ABCDE (ant-post, out-in) 1. Ant epithelium 2. Bowman's membrane 3. Connective tissue stroma (substancia propria) 4. Descemet's membrane 5. Endothelium
53
Stratified sq wet; usual mucous membrane; rich in nerve supply; extra sensitive; u do your corneal reflex here; regenerates easily because it is epithelial, injuries are not a problem except if it involves B; cont with conjuctival epithelium
Ant epithelium
54
Basal lamina of ant epithelium Fine collagen fibers Resistant to entry of foreign bodies & MO Scar formation when injured
Bowman's membrane
55
Midpoint of cornea
Ant pole
