Q

The medial rectus moves the eyeball which direction?

A

medially

21
Q

The lateral rectus moves the eyeball which direction?

A

laterally

22
Q

The superior oblique moves the eyeball which direction?

A

down and out: depresses and lalterally rotates

23
Q

The inferior oblique moves the eyeball which direction?

A

up and out: elevates and laterally rotates

24
Q

The inferior rectus moves the eyeball which direction?

A

down and in: depresses and medially rotates

25
Q

The superior rectus moves the eyeball which direction?

A

up and in: elevates and medially rotates

26
Q

How do you test specific muscle of the orbit?

A

shorten the muscle you’re not interested in, then elevate/depress the eye depending on the muscle you are testing

27
Q

What four muscles of the orbit originate from the common tendinous ring?

A

superior rectus, medial rectus, inferior rectus, lateral rectus

28
Q

The superior branch of oculomotor nerve (CNIII) innervates what muscle(s)?

A

levator palpebrae superioris, superior rectus

29
Q

The inferior branch of oculomotor nerve (CNIII) innervates what muscle(s)?

A

medial rectus, inferior rectus, inferior oblique

30
Q

Dilation and constriction of the pupil are under antagonistic control by ___ and ___ efferents respectively

A

sympathetic; parasympathetic

31
Q

Pupillary constriction is under what autonomic control?

A

parasympathetic

32
Q

Contraction of the ciliary muscle ___(dec/inc) the size of the ring formed by the ___ ___. This ___(dec/inc) tension on the suspensory ligament of the lens.

A

decreases; ciliary body; decreases

33
Q

What types of fibers run in the long ciliary nerve?

A

sensory and sympathetic fibers coming from the nasociliary nerve

34
Q

What nerve carries pain from the eyeball, like when you get something in your eye?

A

V1-ophthalmic nerve

35
Q

What types of fibers run in the short ciliary nerve?

A

sensory, post-ganglionic sympathetic, and post-ganglionic parasympathetic

36
Q

Describe the corneal reflex.

A

something irritates the cornea, sensation is carried by V1-ophthalmic; synapse in the brain stem tells CN VII to orbicularis oculi orbit muscle to tightly shut the eye; eye reopened later by levator palpebrae superioris innervated by CNIII

37
Q

Describe sympathetic innervation of the lacrimal gland.

A

from thoracic chain - superior cervical ganglion - cervical plexus - become the deep petrosal nerve - join fibers of greater petrosal nerve to become nerve of the pterygoid canal; pass through pterygopalatine ganglion (no synapses) to innervate the lacrimal gland

38
Q

Describe parasympathetic innervation of the lacrimal gland.

A

pre-ganglionics: from superior salivatory nucleus; run in CN VII - greater petrosal nerve - nerve of pterygoid canal - synapse in pterygopalatine ganglion. Post-ganglionics: travel with maxillary nerve - zygomatic nerve - lacrimal branch of ophthalmic nerve, then innervate the gland

39
Q

What motion would be used to test the medial rectus muscle?

A

ask the patient to look medially

40
Q

What motion would be used to test the lateral rectus muscle?

A

ask the patient to look laterally

41
Q

What motion would be used to test the superior rectus muscle?

A

ask the patient to look laterally and up

42
Q

What motion would be used to test the inferior rectus muscle?

A

ask the patient to look laterally and down

43
Q

What motion would be used to test the superior oblique muscle?

A

ask the patient to look medially and down

44
Q

What motion would be used to test the inferior oblique muscle?

A

ask the patient to look medially and up

45
Q

The lateral rectus muscle is innervated by what nerve?

A

abducent nerve, CN VI

46
Q

The medial rectus muscle is innervated by what nerve?

A

oculomotor nerve, CN III

47
Q

The superior oblique muscle is innervated by what nerve?

A

trochlear nerve, CN IV

48
Q

The inferior and superior rectus muscles are innervated by what nerve?

A

oculomotor nerve, CN III
