Q

describe the pathway of the optic nerve

A
  • extends out of the cerebrum
  • made up of the axon of the ganglion retinal cells that receive input from the photoreceptor cells
  • they feed into the optic nerve
  • the two optic nerves come together at the optic chiasma
  • they then cross over and go into the optic tract
  • this goes to the lateral deiculum ganglia and to the visual cortex

Q 
what movements does 
- superior rectus 
- inferior rectus
- medial rectus 
- lateral rectus  
- superior oblique 
- inferior oblique 
do?
A

superior rectus – elevation adducts and internally rotates (main movement is elevation )

inferior rectus – depression adduction and externally rotates (main movement is elevation)

medial rectus – adduction

lateral recuts – abduction

superior oblique – depresses, abducts, and internally rotates (main action is depression)

inferior oblique – elevates, abducts and externally rotates (depress the eye main movement)

22
Q

what is abduction in terms of eye movement

A

– away from the midline – eye moves laterally

23
Q

what is adduction in terms of eye movement

A

– towards the midline eye moves medially

24
Q

what are the fibres of the oculomotor nerve

A
  • general somatic efferent – voluntary control (SOMATIC – IN CONTROL)
  • general visceral efferent – this is out of our control ( VISCERAL – OUT OF CONTROL)
25
Q

what is the muscle that causes the eyelid to move

A

Levator palpebrae

26
Q

what does the oculomotor nerve innervate

A
  • superior, medial and inferior rectus and Levator palpebrae – parts that we can control
  • ciliary ganglion which goes to the sphincter pupillae and ciliary muscle – the ciliary ganglion is a parasympathetic ganglion this is involuntary
27
Q

what fibres pass through the ciliary ganglion

A
  • presynaptic parasympathetic fibres that travel to the cillary ganglion
  • the sympathetic fibres passing through ciliary ganglion from the internal carotid plexus these innervate dilator papillae and the blood vessels of the eyes
28
Q

what are the fibres of the Trochlear Nerve CNIV

A
  • general somatic efferent GRE

- it is in the upper part of the superior orbital fissure

29
Q

what does the trochlear nerve innervate

A
  • superior oblique muscle
30
Q

what are the fibres of the Abducens (CNVI)

A
  • general somatic efferent

- it passes through the annulus of Zinn in the central region of the superior orbital fissure

31
Q

what does the abducens (CNVI) innervate

A

lateral rectus muscle

32
Q

the axis does not…

A

follow the pyramidal shape of the orbit therefore it needs to be aligned, the eye needs to move so that the gaze of the orbit sits across the muscle

33
Q

How do you isolate and test superior and inferior rectus

A
  • need to align the axis of the eye with the vector pull of the muscle
  • therefore we need to abduct the eye this the axis of the eye runs over the vector pull of the muscle therefore you are in alignment then we can just test for elevation therefore you are just testing superior rectus
  • to test inferior rectus abduct the eye and test depression
34
Q

How do you isolate and test inferior and superior oblique

A
  • the vector pool is not aligned with the axis of the eye
  • need to move the eyeball so it is aligned
  • therefore adduct the eye to test these muscles
  • isolate inferior and superior oblique
  • they we can test superior oblique for elevation and inferior oblique for depression
35
Q

How do you isolate and test the medial and lateral rectus

A
  • medial and lateral rectus – get patient to look medially and laterally – abduction and adduction – they only have one movement easy to isolate
36
Q

what is oculomotor nerve palsy

A
  • this is relating the movement of the eye and what would go wrong if the nerve had a lesion on it
37
Q

what are the symptoms of oculomotor nerve palsy

A
  • Ptosis (Levator palpabrae superioris) – get a droopy eye lid
  • Stabismus (eyes not alligned)
  • Dyplopia (double vision)
  • Dilated pupil
  • Down and out – unopposed “down” of superior oblique and “out” of lateral rectus
38
Q

what can cause oculomotor nerve palsy

A
  • Head injury, infection, migraine, brain tumour, aneurysm, diabetes, or high BP
39
Q

what are the symptoms of trochlear nerve palsy

A
  • paralysis of superior oblique – depression, abduction and intorsion
  • patients attempt to minimise diplopia by tiling head
  • diplopia – double vision, axis of the eye, ptient will tilt there head to minimise diplopia by tilting head
40
Q

what is the nerve palsy that is hardest to diagnose and rarest

A

Trochlear

41
Q

what are the symptoms of abducens Nerve palsy

A
  • paralysis of lateral rectus
  • effected eye cannot abduct
  • a long course through the cavernous sinus – abducens palsy can be a sing of raised intracranial pressure
42
Q

what are the fibres of the Trigenimal nerve

A
  • general somatic afferent GSA – sensory vontrol
  • branciomotr effernet – BE1 – has development in the branchio – it comes from the 1st pharygenal arch compared to myotomes
43
Q

what are the 3 branches of the trigeminal Nerve

A
  • V1 ophthalmic nerve (GSA) – sensory only
  • V2 maxillary nerve (GSA) – sensory only
  • V3 mandibular nerve (GSA, BE) – mixed nerve
44
Q

what is the mixed nerve branch of the trigeminal nerve

A
  • V3 mandibular nerve (GSA, BE) – mixed nerve
45
Q

what is the sensory innervation of the trigeminal nerve to the face

A
  • Skin, Mucous membrane of nasal cavity, Mucous membrane of oral cavity
  • Anterior 2/3 tongue, Upper and lower dentition, Paranasal sinuses
46
Q

what are the motor innervation of the trigeminal nerve to the face

A
  • msucles of mastication and other muscles of the 1st pharyngela arch
47
Q

post ganglionic neurones of parasympathetic ganglia….

A

travel with branches of trigeminal nerve

48
Q

what are the 3 branches of the V1 ophthalmic nerve

A

Lacriminal
frontal
nasocillary

49
Q

describe the 3 branches of the V1 ophthalmic nerve and what they supply

A
  • lacrimal – piereces through the gland is the gland is parasympathetic, it supplies sensory input to the upper eye lid and conjutiva of the eye
  • frontal – divides into = supratrochlear and superorbital
  • nasociliary – the main function is the cornea, it gives a sensory supply to the cornea
50
Q

How many branches are there of V2 Maxillary

A

there are 14 differnet branches

51
Q

what are some of the divisions of V2 maxillary

A

infraorbital
superior alveolar branches – to upper teeth
palatine
zygomatic

52
Q

what does V3 innervate

A

muscles of mastication
ant belly digastric/mylohyoid
tensor tympani – msucel that tenses the tympahni membrane within the ear
tensor veli palatini

Sensory 
	buccal (mucous membrane of cheek)
	auriculotemporal 
	inferior alveolar
	lingual
53
Q

there is no dermatome for region….

A

C1

54
Q

what happens if there is damage to trigeminal nerve

A

• Pressure aneurysm, tumour infiltration (rarely injury)
– Paralysis muscles of mastication
– Loss of sensation to face
– Loss of corneal reflex
– A 3rd molar extraction can damage lingual nerve – loss of sensation to anterior tongue (taste and somatosensory) and reduced salivation due to involvement of the lingual nerve
