Lab 11 Flashcards
Name the skeletal muscles of the eyeball that innervate the following CN
Oculomotor
CN III
Superior, inferior, medial rectus, and inferior oblique
Name the skeletal muscles of the eyeball that innervate the following CN
Trochlear
CN IV
Superior oblique
Name the skeletal muscles of the eyeball that innervate the following CN
Abducens
CN VI
Lateral rectus
What structure is the colored part of one’s eye?
Iris
Function of the pupil
Control the amount of light entering the eye
Function of the lens
Focus the light to a specific region of the retina
What happens when the ciliary muscles contract?
- Narrows the circumference of ring
- Relaxes the suspensory ligaments
- Lens returns to resting shape – round and conducive to greater refraction and closer vision
Explain the blind spot
The presence of the optic disc prevents the retina from perceiving light in that area
Photoreceptor found at the fovea centralis and its impact on vision
Cones: come in one of three forms (red, green, or blue) and provide color vision and acuity
