25
Q

Choroid

A

-nourises retina
-maintains eye temp and volume

26
Q

Retina

A

captures light to send to brain

27
Q

where is the sharpest vision

A

fovea bc most photoreceptor cells are here

28
Q

Macula (fovea in center)

A

most photoreceptor cells here

29
Q

Optic Disc

30
Q

Ora Serrata

A

-anterior border of retina

31
Q

Optic Nerve

A

CN II: accumulation of retinal axons

inner neural layer

35
Q

Chambers of the eye

A

-Anterior Chamber
-Posterior Chamber
-Vitreous chamber

Q

what chambers does the anterior cavity consist of

A

-anterior chamber
-posterior chamber

37
Q

what chamber does the posterior cavity consist of

A

vitreous chamber (largest)

38
Q

anterior chamber position

A
