Fibrous layer of the eye are
Sclera
Cornea
Sclera has 3 layers that are
Clinical relevance?
Episclera - dense irregular fibrous connective tissue
Sclera proper- collagen
Lamina Fusca- pigmented layer
Jaudice/bilirubin accumluation —> Gilbert syndrom
Cornea has 5 layer that are - avascular and no immune cells
- Epithelial layer- nociceptive layer
- Bowmans membrane
- Stromal layer
- Descmets membrane
- Endothelial layer- blood supply to get nutritions
Vascular tunics of the eye are
- Choroid
- Ciliary body
- Iris
Iris is made up of 2 muscles
- Dilator pupillae —> sympathetic
- Sphicter pupillae –> parasympathtic
- Pigmentation of the eye –>
Ciliaris the big muscle is under influenced of
PSNS
SNS
Changes the shape of the lens when eye is contracted or dilated –> accommodation–> close and distant vision
Ciliary process is a small layer of
epithelial cells that screte aqueous humus (kammarvätska)
Choroid has following layers
pigmented layer absorbing light rays to prevent reflection and scattering of light that can disturb the vision.
Vascular layer to provide nutrition to the eye
Lens is composed of 2 components
Lens fibers that has crystallin proteins
Lens epithelial cells
- to focus light on the retina for close and distant vision
Vitreous humur functions are
- transmitting the light rays
- holds retina in the place
- contribute to intraocular pressuree
Retina’s neuronal layers has
photoreceptors (rods, cons) ganglionic cells bipolar neurons horizontal cells Amecrine
Retina’s outer pigmented cells are made up of
epithelial cells that are rich in melanin to prevent
palpabrae is layered by
conjuctiva and bacterias or viruses can invade and caise conjuctivitis
Tarsal plate of palpabrae has attached to itself 2 muscles and glands
orbicularis muscle
levator palpabrae muscles
tarsal glands that produces sebum to keep moisture
Lacrimal flow
- Lacrimal gland secretes fluid
- Moves across cornea medially
- Moves into lacrimal puncta
- Lacrimal canaliculi
- Lacrimal sac
- Nasolacrimal duct
- Inferior meatus
