orbit Flashcards
palpebral conjunctiva attaches to the eyeball at the
junction of cornea and sclera
medial rectus m
- action: in
- nerve: CN3
sensory innervation to eye
-can go either through ciliary ganglion or through long ciliary n (combined with nasociliary n fibers)
lipid secretion in the eyelid
tarsal glands embedded in tarsus
three ways that inferior ophthalmic v can drain
1) join superior ophthalmic v
2) cavernous sinus
3) pterygoid plexus of veins
what two nerves supply the lacrimal gland
- zygomatic n (carrying fibers from greater petrosal and deep petrosal)
- lacrimal n (CNV1)
lacrimal a supplies
- lacrimal gland
- mm, conjunctive, and lateral sides of eyelid
inferior rectus m
- action: down and in
- nerve: CN3
lateral rectus m
- action: out
- nerve: CN6**
inferior oblique m
- action: up and out
- nerve: CN3
superior rectus m
action: up and in
innervation: CN3
superior tarsal m
- origin: levator palpebrae superioris m
- insertion: superior tarsus
- innerv: superior cervical ganglion (travel with ophthalmic a)
superior venous drainage of eyes is into
cavernous sinus
nerve innervation to lacrimal gland
- greater petrosal + deep petrosal = nerve to pterygoid canal
- synapse at PP ganglion
- fibers travel with zygomatic n (CNV2)
- branch of zygomatic n joins lacrimal n
superior oblique m
- action: down and out
- nerve: CN4***
