Synarthroses
Increase in intraocular pressure which may develop if the drainage of aqueous humor is blocked. As fluid accumulates intraocular pressure increase and may damage blood vessels supplying photoreceptor cells and can result in blindness
Glaucoma
Why is the optic disc referred to as the blind spot?
There are no photoreceptors there so we cannot see anything in that area of the eye
What role do the suspensory ligaments and ciliary muscles play in the process of accommodation?
Ciliary muscles and suspensory ligaments work together to change the shape of the lens, and thus enable objects near, far and in between to be focused on the retina for sharp vision.
