Q

What is the Light Reflex?

A

Optic Nerve (Afferent) detects light
Oculomotor Nerve (Efferent) constricts both eye pupils

45
Q

Cranial Nerve II: Light Reflex Pathway
Pathway names

A

Direct Light Reflex: Pupil reflex is ipsilateral
Consensual Light Reflex: Pupil reflex is contralateral

46
Q

Cranial Nerve II: Light Reflex Pathway
Direct Light Reflex

A

Light on One Retina → Optic Nerve → Optic Chiasma → Optic Tract → LGB → Pretectal Nucleus → EW nucleus → 3rd nerve → Ciliary Ganglion → Constrictor Pupillae

47
Q

Cranial Nerve II: Light Reflex Pathway
Consensual Light Reflex

A

Light causes constriction of both pupils because Pretectal Nucleus is connected to both EW nuclei

48
Q

Cranial Nerve II: Accommodation Reflex
Adjustments of Accommodation Reflex

A

Convergence of both eyes
Constriction of Pupil
Increased Refractive Power of Lens

49
Q

A

contraction of constrictor pupillae

51
Q

Cranial Nerve II: Accommodation Reflex
Increased Refractive Power caused by …

A

contraction of ciliary muscle

52
Q

Cranial Nerve II: Accommodation Reflex
Pathway

A

Retina Stimulation → Optic Nerve → Optic Chiasma → Optic Tract → LGB → Optic Radiation → Visual Cortex → Superior Longitudinal Bundle → Frontal Eye Field (Area 8) → EW nucleus → Oculomotor Nerve → Cilliary Ganglion → Sphincter Pupillae Muscle of Ciliary Muscle
