Q

What are eye movement produced by?

A

Extrinsic muscles of the eye

23
Q

Basic ee movements

A
24
Q

What is intort and extort?

A

These movements occur when the head is tilted- In order to keep the eyeballs focused on an object the eyes rotate in the opposite direction.

A

Intort

26
Q

What are the 6 muscles of the eye?

A

Four of these are straight course and two are oblique

27
Q

the elevator of the upper eyelid is also considered as an extrinsic eye muscle even though it has no action on the eyeball itself. What is this muscle called?

A

Levator palpebrae superioris

28
Q

What innervates the levator palpebrae superioris?

A

Oculomotor nerve

A

Elevation

Adduction

Intorsion

37
Q

Which is the only muscle that does not arise from the posterior aspect of the orbit?

A

38
Q

Name the ligaments that prevent over-adduction and over-abduction of the eye.

A

Suspensory Ligament of eyeball – Lockwood’s Ligament

39
Q

What is the function of the suspensory ligament of the eye

42
Q

In which part of the orbit does this structure lie, medial or lateral?

A

Lacrimal Gland is lateral – Lacrimal Sac etc. Medial

43
Q

From which cranial nerve does parasympathetic innervation to this structure arise?

A

Facial nerve

44
Q

Into which meatus of the nasal cavity does it drain (via the nasolacrimal duct)
