sclera- posterior 5/6ths of eye. opaque. becomes continous with the dura
choroid- intermediate layer
retina-
72
What is the cornea?
transparant principal refracting medium of the eye that roughly focuses image onto retina
main focus, espeically after 10 feet
5 layers
AVASCULAR- gets diffusion of metaboites from aqueous humor and blood vells of limbus, and some o2 from environment
73
why do you get red eye in photos?
eye is very vascular- light emphasises the blood vessels
uveal layer- middle layer
74
What is the ciliary body?
in uveal ayer with
continous with choroid
bulk consists of smooth muscle (ciliary muscle) around the lens that contracts to reduce tension of the suspensory ligament to thicken lens
far vision- lens open
near visiton lens smaller (ciliary contracts)
parasymptaheic nerve fibers CNIII via ciliary ganglion
75
What do ciliary processes do>
folds in ciliary body that continously produce aqueous humor
AH is like CSF
provides metabolites to cells and reabsobd into canal of Schlemm
fluid pumped and pulled into drain- if build up willl compress retina = glaucoma
76
What is the number 1 cause of blindness?
glaucoma- increased intraocular pressure
compresses retina, optic nerve and blood vessels= not draining aqueous humor
blurred vision, halos around bright objects, pain, blindness
77
What is the difference between open angle glaucoma and angle closure glaucoma?
Open-
closed- blocked trabecular netwowrk and too much AH produced trapped in posterior chamber iris lifts off lens
78
What is the lens?
arise from ciliary body
anteior art of uveal layer of eye
shutter on camera
finetuning close vision
nuclei may be missing or on the side to not block view
79
What muscles control the pupil?
constrictor pupillae- circumferentially oriented smooth muscle PARASYMP
dialate- radially oriented dilator pupillae muscle. SYMP
constant regulation
80
What does limited light do?
helps retina
smaller hole- better focus
81
How is the cillary muscle innervated?
paraympathetic only! causes lens to thicken
| circumferential
82
What is considered far vision>
after 10 feet
83
what happens when changing vision from far to near?
parasympathetic system
| lens fatter/pupil constrict
84
What are the layers of the retina?
outter- rods and cones w/ cell bodies= photoreceptors
middle- bipolar cells (integrate sensory input from receptor before CNS)
inner- ganglia of optic nerve
85
What are rods vs cones?
```
rods
not for day light
for dim
1 type of photopigment
edgoes but not color
long/easy to hit = single photos
```
cones
daylight
faster on/off
color- relative to output %
86
What is the first optic action potential>
optic nerve
87
How does like travel through retina?
light goes through cell layer to photoreceptors
neural info goes opposite direction
88
What is the weakest part of the rena? dark spots/blurry
where photoreceptors meet the layer can lift off if not fixed they die
89
What is the pigmented epithelia>
back stop so light only goes through eye once- otherwise "house of mirrors"
90
what is a mueller cell?
retinal barrier and support
91
What is the fovea?
cones only, no rods
direct stimulation from light
weakest blood supply
92
What is the blind spot of the eye?
retina on lamina ribrosa = optic papilla (optic disc)
optic disc= where blood vessels come in (retinal artery)
no photoreceptors
apex points medially
different between each eye
93
What artery supplies blood to the eye?
ophthalmic
retinal and uveal systems
central artery of retina and central vein of retina
uveal= ophtahlmic artery branches of ciliary arteries long and short
94
What is venus drainage of the retina?
central vein
drains to cavernous sinus (may join ophtalmic veins)
95
What happens if there is a change in CSF?
will squeeze into optic nerve
artery and nerve okay but vein can collapse
papilladeema = blood build up and disc bulge
96
What is the most superfical nerve in the orbit?
Frontal
97
What is macular degeneration>
deteriation of central portion of retina
can lead to blindness
