lecture 15: CN III, IV, VI Flashcards
true or false and explain: all visual information entering the right eye will end up on the left primary visual cortex
false, it is all information from th right visual field
true or false: the right temporal optic radiations carry info from the upper left visual quadrants
true
true or false and explain: the temporal aspects of the retina always receive information from the right visual field
false, receive info from medial visual fields
true or false and : all neurons carrying information from the fovea (bilateral) will decussate at the optic chaise
false
following a head injury, friend says they can barely smell and nose seems runnier than usual (but not congested) what part of olfactory pathway is affected
olfactory n (if runny, CSF)
cribirome plate can be broken and damage olfactory nerves
what are the orbits
paired pyramidal osseous cavities
what are the 7 bones that contribute to each orgbit
frontal
sphenoid
ehhmoid
palatine
lacrimal
maxilla
zygomatic
what fissure is located between the greater and lesser wings of sphenoid
superior orbital fissure
explain the oblique orientation of the orbit
each apex points in a posteromedial direction, creating an oblique orientation
each apex of orbit points in a BLANK direction, creating an oblique orientation
POSTERMOEDIAL
the orbital axis points in what direction
posteromedial
true or false, the orbital axis does not equal the optic axis
true
explain how the axis of eyeball (optical axis) does not equal the axis of orbit (or=bital axis)
orbital axis points posteromedially while optic axis is a straight vertical line
what is at the apex od the orbit
optic canal
what n passes thru the optic canal
optic n
how many extraocculator muscles are there
7
true or false: all 7 extraoccualtor muscles attach to the eye
false, only 6
what are the 7 extraoccualar muscles
superior obloqie
inferior oblique
medial rectus
lateral rectus
inferior rectus
superior rectus
levator palpeerde superioris
what is the one extraoccular muscle that does not attach to the eyeball
levator palpebrae superioris
what are the 3 rotation axes of the extraoccular muscles
horizontal (transverse)
vertical
anteroposterior
vertical axis of the eye allows what movements
abduction and adduction
anteroposterior axis of the eye allows what movements
lateral and medial rotation
aka intorsion and extorsion
tranverse axis of the eye allows what movements
evlevation and depression
true or false; eyes usually move along a single plane/single axis
false, rarely
extraoccular muscles work in various combos to facilitate muscles
