Once the lacrimal gland secretes tears, how are they transported from the gland to the conjunctival sac?
Lacrimal duct
How are tears transported from the conjunctival sac to the nasolacrimal duct?
Lacrimal canaliculi
The cornea, sclera, and limbus (cornea sclera junction) make up which layer of the eye?
Fibrous, external layer
____: tough coating of the eye, white part
___: transparent part of eye, covers lens and supporting structures
Sclera
Cornea
What is the pathway that tears take?
Which layer of the eye is associated with vasculature?
Middle layer of the eye
Which layer of the eye contains the following?
- choroid
- ciliary body (and processes)
- iris
- pupil
- sphincter/dilator papillae
Vascular layer (choroid)
______: located between fibrous later and retina, houses capillary lamina compex
Choroid
Capillary lamina supplies blood supply to which layer of the eye?
Choroid
Label the following:
Which structure of the eye secretes aqueous humor into the anterior chamber?
Ciliary processes
____: Thin diaphragm anterior to lens, manipulates amount of light entering the eye
____: Central aperture of iris, where light enters eyeball
Iris
Pupil
Ciliary Body connects the choroid to which structures?
Lens and Iris
Which muscles are indicated by the orange and blue regions? Function of those muscles?
Orange = Dilator Papillae (dilates pupil, sympathetic innervation)
Blue = Sphincter Papillae (constricts pupil, parasympathetic innervation)
The optic disc, macula lutea, and fovea centralis composed which part of the inner layer of the eye?
Fundus of the eyeball
____: spot where CN II enters, creating a blind spot
____: location for visual acuity lateral to optic disc
___: center of macula, spot for light to focus
Optic disc: spot where CN II enters, creating a blind spot
Macula lutea: location for visual acuity lateral to optic disc
Fovea centralis: center of macula, spot for light to focus
True or False: Aqueous humor helps refract light, helps light be focused on an object
True
Label the following
Which layer of the retina are rods and cones found in?
Neural Layer
A. Photoreceptive Neuron Layer
Which layer of the retina (Optic or Non-visual Layer) contains: light receptive cells, rods (low light) and cones (color) ; optic nerve; bipolar neurons; ganglia layers
Optic Layer
Macula lutea is also known as the ___
fovea
Label the chambers of the eye:
True or False: Both the anterior and posterior chamber of the eye contain aqueous humor
False (anterior only! - made by ciliary body)
Which chamber of the eyeball contains Aqueous Humor?
Anterior Chamber
(helps refract light + provides nutrients to surrounding structures)
Which chamber of the eye is located between the iris/pupil and lens/ciliary body?
Posterior Chamber
Which muscle change the shape of the lens and focal distance?
Ciliary muscles
___: Active process of lens manipulation, parasympathetic control via CN III
Accommodation
Why can trauma to the eye dislodge or detach the retina?
Pigmented and Neural layer are not firmly held onto each other
____: a disease of the eye associated with deterioration of the lens
____: a condition in which the lens becomes more opaque, making it more challenging for light to enter
Presbyopia (Age-related Farsightedness)
Cataracts
Cause of glaucoma?
Imbalance of aqueous humor production and removal
Which chamber of the eye contains Vitreous Humor?
Posterior Chamber

Rectus Muscles (4)
The Obliques (2)
Name this muscle:
What is its function and origin?

Action: Elevates upper eyelid
Origin: Sphenoid
What is the origin for the following eye muscles:
* Superior Rectus
* Medial Rectus
* Lateral Rectus
* Inferior Rectus
The rectus muscles originate in the common tendinous ring
Which eye muscles originates in the inferomedial orbital floor?
Inferior Oblique Muscle
Label the following muscles and the CN that innervates them
