Which nerve innervates the levator palpabrae superior is?
Oculomotor nerve
What is mydriasis?
Constriction of pupil
What is bitemporal hemanopia?
Half of vision is affected on each side, due to lesion of the optic chiasm.
Damage to visual field
Occurs due to lesion in the optic tract, lateral geniculate nucleus or the visual cortex
Contralateral vision loss
Ipsilateral vision loss
Optic nerve lesion
Vision loss with macular sparing
Visual cortex lesion due to bilateral representation of macular on both cortex.
What is the macula?
Region in the retina for colour vision and fine detail. It is supplied by the posterior cerebral artery and middle cerebral artery.
What is the superior tarsal muscle?
Maintains elevation of eyelid, innervated by the sympathetic chain.
Which system is responsible for mydriasis?
Sympathetic chain via dilator pupillae
Innervation to stapedius muscle
Facial nerve
What is Cauda Equina Syndrome?
Cauda equine syndrome involves cord compression and produces bilateral symptoms both sensory sacrum, perineum and motors defect to the lower limbs
Causes loss of anal tone, perianal sensation and lower limb paresis
Which cranial nerves are Ipsilateral?
All of them excluding trochlear nerve
Which cranial nerve is contralateral?
Trochlear nerve, innervating the superior oblique.
Cause of subarachnoid haemorrhage?
Berry aneurysm
Bone conduction is better than air conduction
Conductive hearing loss
Air conduction is better than bone conduction
Sensineural hearing loss
With vertigo: vestibulocochlear damage
Without vertigo: hair cell damage
Which ganglion controls the pupillary reflex?
Ciliary ganglion via the Edinger-Westphalia nucleus of parasympathetic system.
