The Eye Flashcards
Bones forming the orbit
Frontal bone Zygomatic bone Maxilla Ethmoid bone Lacrimal bone Sphenoid bone Palatine vone
Openings in the orbit
Infraorbital foramen Superior orbital fissure Inferior orbital fissure Optic canal Anterior ethmoidal canals Posterior ethmoidal canals
The lacrimal apparatus consists of
Lacrimal gland Lacrimal puncta Lacrimal canal Lacrimal sac Nasolacrimal duct
Nerve supply to lacrimal gland
Facial nerve > Geneculate ganglion (NO) > Greater petrosal nerve > Nerve to pterygoid canal > Sphenopalatine ganglion > Zygomatic never > Lacrimal nerve > Lacrimal gland
