51
Q

The venous drainage of the eye and optic is via what?

A

Superior and inferior ophthalmic veins

to cavernous sinus or pterygoid venous plexus

52
Q

What are the layers of the eyeball?

A

Fibrous, vascular and inner layer

53
Q

What makes up the fibrous layer of the eyeball?

A

outer layer consists of sclera and cornea

54
Q

What makes up the vascular layer of the eyeball?

A

Middle layer consists of choroid, ciliary body and iris

55
Q

What makes up the inner layer of the eyeball?

A

inner layer consists of retina (visual and nonvisual parts)

56
Q

What is the sclera?

A

opaque outer covering

57
Q

What is the cornea?

A

transparent part of sclera

58
Q

What is the choroid?

A

Layer between sclera and retina; very vascular

59
Q

What is the ciliary body?

A

Muscular, provides attachment for lens and connects choroid to iris; controls thickness of lens; secretes aqueous humor

Ciliary muscles are controlled by parasympathetics

60
Q

What is the anterior chamber?

A

chamber of the eye between cornea and iris/pupil

61
Q

What is the posterior chamber?

A

chamber of the eye between iris/pupil and lens

62
Q

What is the iris?

A

pigmented (gives each person their eye color) and is capable of constricting to control how much light enters the pupil

63
Q

What is the dilator pupillae m?

A

muscle of the iris that dilates the iris under sympathetic control

64
Q

What is the sphincter pupillae m?

A

Muscle of the iris that constricts the iris; under parasympathetic control

65
Q

In the absence of nerve stimulation the ciliary muscle is relaxed causing the lens to do what?

A

Since the zonular fibers are under tension, it causes the lens to stretch thin to refract light for distant vision

66
Q

In the presence of parasympathetic stimulation, the ciliary muscle is contracted causing the lens to do what?

A

Since the zonular fibers are now more relaxed, the lens has internal tension and becomes more spherical to refract light for near vision

67
Q

What is the optic portion of the retina?

A

Visual portion: sensitive to light and has a pigmented layer (reduces scattering of light) and a neural layer (light receptive)

68
Q

What is the nonvisual portion of the retina?

A

An anterior continuation of pigmented layer associated with iris and ciliary body

69
Q

Where does the retina receive its blood from?

A

Central artery of the retina (from opthalmic a)

70
Q

The back of the eye contains a distinct circular area called what?

A

optic disc

71
Q

Where are the sensory nerve endings of the optic nerve concentrated?

optic disc

72
Q

Q

What is another name for extrinsic eye muscles?

A

extraocular muscles

74
Q

What is the function of the extrinsic eye muscles?

A

moves the eyeball

75
Q

Why are the eye muscles called extrinsic?
