Term
skeletal structures aroudnt he orbit
Definition
lacrimal bone
tendinous ring sits int he sphenoid and ehmoid bone over the superior orbital fissure
overlies the optic canal
Term
tarsal plates
Definition
tough tendinous posterior tio obicularis oculi
oily secretions fromt eh structure stop dry eyes
superior part is larger than inferior
Term
palbebral fissure
Definition
the gap wehre the eye is
Term
cornea
Definition
surface of eye
Term
conjunctiva
Definition
lining not on the space around it
Term
levator palpabrae superioris
Definition
elevates the upper eyelid
Term
muller's muscle aka superior tarsal plate
Definition
smooth muscle attaches to LPS and tarsal plate
contracts with sympathetic activity
Term
muscleso f the eye are attached to a
Definition
tendinous ring
Term
medial recuts
Definition
media side of the eye ball
Term
lateral rectus
Definition
innervation abducens
Term
superior rectus
Definition
top of eyeball oculomotor
Term
inferior rectus
Definition
bottom of eyeball
Term
NOT attached to ring
Definition
Superior oblique
Inferior Oblique
Term
superior oblique innervation
Definition
IV
Term
superior oblique action
Definition
look down and out
test by looking down and in
Term
inferior oblique
Definition
inenrvation III
action: look up and medially laterally
Term
optic nerve travles through______, above_________. It is surrounded by
Definition
the tendinous ring
opthalmic artery
meninges
Term
ophthalmic artery
Definition
follows V1
comes off the itnernal carotid
branches includ ethe thmoidal arteries
Term
central retinal artery
Definition
runs underneath in the optic nerve, branched off from ophthalmic artery
supplies inner surface layers of the retina
obstruction results in loss of sight
Term
nerves running around optic nerve
Definition
V1-nasociliary nerve only part that goes through the rendinous ring

medial branch: long ciliary nerves:general sensation to eye
ethmoid nerves: sensation from upper nose
Term
ciliary ganglion
Definition
revieves innervation from BOTH nasociliary and oculomootr root (III)

Innervation is this both sensory V1 and parasympathetic

One of four parasympathetic ganglia in the head.
Term
short ciliary nerves
Definition
branch off ciliary ganglion
ordinary sensation to eye
ciliary muscle: focusing of eye (parasympathetic)
sphincter pupillae: smooth muscle, narrows opening in iris (parasympathetic)
Term
nerves that are superior to LPS
Definition
frontal--> supratrochlear (medial) supraorbital (lateral)
Term
lacrimal nerve
Definition
to the lacrimal gland
Term
nerve goes into superior oblique
Definition
IV
Term
lacrimal gland
Definition
resembles the pancreas; also contains LPS tendon; upper lateral side of eye

ducts: connect gland to eye surface, blinking reflex is used to spread tears across the surface of the eye-most of tears evaporate
ters flow across eye to medial corner
Term
tears go thru
Definition
lacrimal caniculi, drais to lacrimal sac in teh nasal cavity, down to the nasolacrimal canal and out into the nose (the inferior concha)
