Week 3 Wet Flashcards
List the 7 bones that make up the orbit of the eye
- Lacrima
- Ethmoid
- Frontal
- Spenoid (Lesser and greater wing)
- Maxilla
- Zygomaticus
What are the various openings in the orbit of the eye?
Optic Foramen
Inferior and Superior Orbital Fissures
What passes through the optic foramen?
The optic nerve
Opthalmic artery
What passes through the inferior orbital fissure
Maxillary Nerve (V2)
What passes through the superior orbital fissure?
Oculomotor Nerve III
Trochlear Nerve IV
Opthalmic Nerve (V1)
Abducens Nerve (VI)
Opthalmic Veins
Why is the floor of the orbit weaker than the rest?
It contains the Inferior orbital groove
What are the contents of the orbit?
- Eye
- Opthalmic artery + branches
- Optic Nerve
- Extrinsic eye muscles
- Ligaments of the eye
- Lacrimal apparatus
- Orbital fat
What are the 3 layers of the eye and their constituent parts
Outer fibrous — Sclera & Cornea
Middle Vascular — Choroid, Ciliary body and Iris
Inner Sensory —- Retina
How is the eye divided into segments and chambers?
Lens divides it into the ant & post segments
The iris divides the anterior segment into ant/post chambers
What is found in the anterior and posterior segments?
Ant - Aqueous Humor
Post - Vitreous Humour
What produces aqueous humor and what are the functions of it and vitreous humor?
Aqueous humor - Ciliary Body. It maintians intraocular pressure
Vitreous humor - Cushions the retina
What do we call the part of the retina with maximum visual acuity?
Macula or Fovea Centralis
What forms the end of the retina anteriorly?
Ora Serrata
Just ant to the equator of the eye
List the intrinsic muscles of the eye?
Ciliaris
Constricter Pupillae
Dilator Pupillae
What are the locations, actions and innervation’s of the intrinsic muscles of the eye?
Ciliaris:
- Ciliary Body
- Accommodation
- Parasympathetic via III
Constrictor Pupillae:
- Pupillary border of the iris (Circular)
- Constricting pupil
- Parasympathetic via III
Dilator Pupillae:
- Iris (Radial)
- Dilates Pupil
- Sympathetic
List the extrinsic muscles of the eye?
Recti - Lateral, medial, sup & inf
Obliques - Sup & Inf
LPS - Levator Palpabrae Superioris
List the 6 main movements of the eye
Adduction (medial) Abduction (Lateral) Depression (Down) Elevation (Up) Intorsion (rotates towards midline) Extorsion (Rotates away from midline)
