Q

After tears are produced and travel across the cornea (helped by orbicularis oculi moving the eyelid), how do they travel to the nasolacrimal duct?

A

Tears are produced by lacrimal gland then go to - cornea - then through the lacrimal punctum to the lacrimal canaliculi (superior and inferior) - the lacrima canaliculi connects to the lacrimal sac which connects to the nasolacrimal duct

A

The conjunctivae Diagnosis For A - allergic conjunctivitis For B - infective conjunctivitis Pus makes B likley to be infective (probably bacterial)

23
Q

What are the three layers of the eyeball? What composes the layers?

A

Outer fibrous layer - sclera with cornea in middle Middle vascular layer - choroid (uvea), ciliary body, iris Inner layer (nervous and pigmented) - retina

24
Q

A

1 - cornea 2 - anterior chamber 3 - pupil 4 - iris 5 - sclera 6.Suspensory ligaments of the lensv(posterior camber found between the iris and suspensory ligaments of the lens) 7 - lens 8- ciliary muscles 9 - sclera

25
Q

Where do the extra-ocular muscles attach? Makes up 85% of the fibrous layer of the eye

A

The sclera comprises the majority of the fibrous layer (approximately 85%). This is where the extra-ocular muscles attach

26
Q

What is the transparent layer at the front of the eye?

A

The cornea

27
Q

The vascular layer of the eye lies underneath the fibrous layer What does it consist of?

A

Consists of the choroid , the ciliary body (containing the muscles) and the iris

28
Q

What attaches the ciliary muscles to the lens of the eye?

A

Zonular fibres attach the ciliary body to the lens Zonular fibres also known as suspensory ligament of the lens

29
Q

What happens to the shape of the lens when the ciliary muscles contract? What is this process known as?

A

When the ciliary muscles contract, the suspensory ligaments relax allowing the lens to widen - near vision When the ciliary muscles relax, the suspensory ligaments become taught causing the lens to flatter (distant vision)

30
Q

What is situated between the lens and cornea with a gap for the pupil in the middle?

A

The iris

31
Q

Smooth muscle fibres of the iris cause constriction of the pupil What provides parasympathetic innervation to the iris cons

A

The parasympathetic fibres of the oculomotor nerve (CN III)

32
Q

When do the constrictor muscle of the pupil work?

A

Works in bright light as not as much light is needed to enter the eye

33
Q

What is the muscle of the iris under sympathetic control that is used to dilate the pupil in dim light?

A

The dilator pupillae of the iris

34
Q

What is the area of most distinct vision of the eye?

A

The fovea of the eye - located in the macula

35
Q

What are the six extra-ocular muscles?

A

Superior oblique - attaches to lateral upper side of the eye

Inferior oblique - attaches to lateral underside of eye

Superior rectus

Middle rectus

Lateral rectus

Inferior rectus

36
Q

Where do the extra-ocular rectus muscles of the eye move the eye?

A

Superior rectus - moves eye superiorly and medially (up and in) Inferior rectus - moves eye inferiorly and medially (down and in) Lateral rectus - abducts eye Medial rectus - adducts eye

37
Q

Where do the superior oblique and inferior oblique muscles move the eye?

A

Superior oblique moves eye inferiorly and laterally (down and out) (remember tramp is down and out) Inferiorly oblique moves eye superiorluy and laterally (up and out)

38
Q

What does the superior oblique pass through (pully) and what is its nerve supply?

A

Passes through the trochlea and is supplied by the trochlear nerve

39
Q

What does the lateral rectus cause and what supplies it?

A

Causes abduction (lateral) of the eyeball Supplied by CN VI - abducent nerve

40
Q

What is the nerve supply of all 6 extra occular nerves? What is the nerve supply of the levator palpabrae superioris?

A

* Superior, medial and inferior rectus + Inferior oblique - oculomotor nerve * * Superior oblique muscle - trochlear nerve (causes eye to move down and out) (inferolaterally) * Lateral rectus - abducent nerve (causes abduction(lateral movement) Levator palpabrae superioris supplied by CNIII (oculomotor nerve)

41
Q

Clinical testing of the eye slightly differs from the normal movements of the eye Explain how you would test each of the obliques

A

Testing Superior oblique muscle - ask patient to move eye medially and then inferiorly (ends up with down and in) Inferior oblique muscle - as patient to move eye medially and then superiorly (up and in)

42
Q

When testing the obliques, the superior oblique is located on the superolateral aspect of the eye - therefore moving the eye medially can isolate the superior oblique if you then move the eye downwards What surface of the eye is the inferior oblique located on? how is it tested?

A

Located on inferolateral surface so once moving the eye medially, contracting of the inferior oblique will cause the eye to go upwards

43
Q

What direction do you ask the patient to test the eye for the lateral and medial rectus?

A

For lateral - laterally For medial - medially

44
Q

What movememnt for superior and inferior rectus?

A

For superior -ask patient to move eye laterally and the superiorly (up and out) For inferior rectus - ask patient to move eye laterally and inferiorly (down and out)

45
Q

60 year old patient attends your opthamology for evaluation of his ptsosis Which affected muscle is most likely to be the cause?

A

Ptosis, also known as blepharoptosis, is a drooping or falling of the upper eyelid Muscle cause is levator palpabrae superioris

46
Q

22 year old has been punched upper right cheek Indicaticates a inferiorlateral fracture Which bone?

A

Inferolateral fracture of orbit is zygomatic bone

47
Q

Would like to test CN IV – following movements of your finger, which directions hould the eye move to best test the function?

A

Testing the superior oblique muscle of the eye Ask patient to move eye medially and then inferiorly (So down and in)

48
Q

Eye lid has dropped, eye ball is slightly depressed and abducted (down and out) Which nerve is damaged?

A

As the supeiro oblique eye movement is unopposed it is working Therefore it is oculomotor

49
Q

State the normal movements of the superior oblique muscle and state how to test? Do the same for the inferior oblique?

A

Superior oblique normal movement - moves eye down and out (inferolaterally) * Testing - move eye medially then inferiorly, (down and in) Inferior oblique normal movement - moves eye up and out (superolaterally) * Testing - move eye medially then supiorly

50
Q

Name the two muscles that depress the eye and the two muscles that elevate the eye?

A

Inferior rectus Superior oblique These two muscles depress the eye Inferior oblique Superior rectus These two muscles elevate the eye
