Q

T/F the optic nerve retains all of the meningeal layer?

A

True
covered by meningeal dura, arachnoid membrane, and pia mater
Papilledema: increase in intracranial pressure will increase the pressure in the subarachnoid space, thus sqeezing the optic nerve

Q

Describe the Parasympathetic innervation to the lacrimal gland?

A

Super Salivatory Nucleus send preganglionic fiber to the Sphenopalatine Ganglion (SPG) via the CNVIII, Greater superfical Petrosal N. and Vidian N.

Postganglionic fibers from the SPG innervate lacrimal gland travel via V2 and lacrimal N.

Q

Describe the sympathetic innervation to the lacrimal gland.

A

Supplied by the Superior Cervical ganglion
gives rise to Deep petrosal n. and GSPN which fuse and become the Vidian N>
Post-ganglionic Fibers also travel through SPG but do not synapse

A

innervation: CN VII
Function: close the eyelids and drain tears
Clinically: Bell’s palsy: facial paralysis
Corneal Reflex ( in w/ 5, out w/ 7)

20
Q

______ and ______ are muscles of the eyelid?

A

Levator Palepbrae Superioris M (CN 3)

Tarsus Smooth m. (Muller’s): Innervated by sympathetics

21
Q

What is the innervation, function and clinical sig. of levator Palpebrae Superioris m. ?

A

inserts into the palpebral fascia and skin of the upper lib
innervated by the GSE fibers to III n.
destruction of the III n. or one of its branches to this muscle results in paralysis of the LPS and complete ptosis

22
Q

What is the innervation, function and clinical sig. of tarsal m.?

A

smooth muscle inserts on the tarsal plate of the upper lib Innervated: postganglionic sympathetic fibers

Horner’s syndrome: slight ptosis, miosis, and anhidrosis and flushing of the skin on the face may also be present

23
Q

What are the 6 extraocular muscles?

A
Superior rectus 
Medial rectus
Inferior rectus 
Lateral rectus
Inferior Oblique 
Superior Oblique
24
Q

The lateral Rectus is innervated by ______ and its function is ________.

A

CN 6

abduct eye

25
Q

The Medial Rectus is innervated by ______ and its function is ________.

A

CN 3

Adduct eye

26
Q

The Inferior oblique is innervated by ______ and its function is ________.

A

CN 3

Adduct and elevate eye

27
Q

The superior oblique is innervated by ______ and its function is ________.

A

CN 4

Adduct and depress

28
Q

The Superior Rectus is innervated by ______ and its function is ________.

A

CN3

Abduct and elevate

29
Q

The Inferior Rectus is innervated by ______ and its function is ________.

A

CN3

Abduct and depress

30
Q

Describe the vision pathway.

A

optic n., optic chiasm, optic tract, lateral geniculate body, brachium of superior colliculus, superior colliculus

31
Q

Relationships of the Optic nerve.

A

diencephalon
Optic canal w/ ophthalmic a.
Pituitary relationship

32
Q

The _______ nerve divides the cerebellar arterial supply from the Cerebral Arterial Supply?

A

Oculomotor nerve

posterior cerebral a. from superior cerebellar

33
Q

_____ nerve arise from the posterior side of the brain stem and innervates the superior oblique m. ?

A

Trochlear nerve

34
Q

What are the branches off the V1 (ophthalmic n.)

A
Nasociliary
Frontal
  supratrochlear
  supraorbital 
Lacrimal
35
Q

______ innervates the lateral rectus muscle?

A

Abducens nerve

abducts the eye

36
Q

Describe the Corneal (blink) reflex.

A

Stimulus: lightly touching the cornea
receptors: naked nerve endings
afferent: Nasociliary nerve (long ciliary n.)
