Q

what is the function of the ciliary body?

A

to produce aqueous humour that nourishes avascular cornea, contains ciliary muscles, and helps focus lens using zonular fibers and ciliary muscles

21
Q

what do ciliary muscles, zonule, and lens look like when focusing on distant bjects

A

ciliary muscles would be relaxed, the zonule would be taut, and the lens would be flattened for focusing on distant objects

22
Q

what nervous system controls the sphincter pupillae?

A

the parasympathetic nervous system`

23
Q

what do the sphincter pupillae do?

A

contricts pupil when the sphincter pupilae is contracted

24
Q

are the sphicter pupillae muscles proximal or distal to the pupil?

A

proximal!

25
Q

what is the purpose of the choroid?

A

to nourish the retina and maintain eye temp and volume

26
Q

what is the purpose of the retina

A

captures light to send to the brain

27
Q

what is the the outer fibrous layer

A

sclera and the cornea

28
Q

what is in the middle vascular layer

A

iris, choroid, ciliary body

29
Q

what is in the inner layer

A

retina

30
Q

what chambers are in the anterior cavity of the eye

A

anterior and posterior chamber

31
Q

what chamber is in the posterior cavity of the eye

A

vitreous chamber

32
Q

where is the anterior chamber

A

btw cornea and the iris`

33
Q

what is the purpose of the anterior chamber

A

to contain the aqueus humour

34
Q

where is the posterior chamber

A

btw the iris and the lens

35
Q

what is the purpose of the posterior chamber?

A

to aid in production and circulation of aqueous humour

36
Q

what is the purpose of aqueous humour?

A

to main eye pressure

37
Q

what is the purpose of the vitreous chamber?

A

to contain vitreous humour

38
Q

what is the purpose of vitreous humour

A

to maintain shape of eye, to nourish the eye

39
Q

where is the vitreous chamber of the eye

A

behind the lens

40
Q

which extraocular muscles are on top of the eye?

A

superior rectus, trochlea, superior oblique

41
Q

what extraocular muscles are on the lateral and medial sides of the eye

A

the lateral rectus and the medial rectus

42
Q

what extraocular muscles are on the bottom of the eye?

A

inferiror oblique and inferior rectus

43
Q

what movement does the inferior oblique do?

A

moves the eyeball up and out

44
Q

what movement does the superior oblique do?

A

moves the eye down and out

45
Q

what movement does the superior rectus do?

A

moves eye up

46
Q

what movement does the lateral rectus do?

A

moves eye laterally

47
Q

what innervates the extraocular muscles?

A

the oculomotor nerve except it does not innervate the lateral rectus (this is the abducens nerve) and the superior oblique (this is the trochlear nerve)

48
Q

what is the lacrimal apparatus

A

system of glands and ducts that produces and drains lacrimal fluid

49
Q

what is lacrimal fluid?

A

fluid that lubricates eye surface, removes debris from eye, aka tears

50
Q

where is the lacrimal gland on the eye?

A

superior and lateral

51
Q

what structures does the lacrimal apparatus contain?

A

lacrimal gland, excretory lacrimal ducts, superior and inferior puncta, superior and inferior lacrimal canaliculi, lacrimal sac, and nasolacrimal duct
(LNL PEC)

52
Q

what structures of the lacrimal apparatus are medial?

A

puncta, canaliculi, lacrimal sac, nasolacrimal duct
