A

anterior and posterior ethmoidal arteries

43
Q

what is the terminal branch of the ophthalmic artery

A

dorsal nasal artery

44
Q

what supplies the lacrimal sac and adjacent skin of the nose and anastomoses with adjacent branches of the facial artery

A

dorsal nasal artery

45
Q

end branches of the __ supply parts of the forehead

A

supraorbital and supratrobhlear arteries

46
Q

what artery travels WITHIN the optic nerve

A

central artery of retina

47
Q

__ first branch of the ophthalmic artery and is given off close to the optic canal

A

central artery of the retina

48
Q

__ pierces the dura and runs within the optic nerve

A

central artery

49
Q

after passing through the cribriform plate of the sclera, __ divides into 4 major branches

A

optic nerve

50
Q

__ drains the eyes and orbit and have important connections with the facial vein, pterygoid plexus, and cavernous sinus

A

superior and inferior ophthalmic veins

51
Q

superior and inferior ophthalmic veins are valve/valvess

A

valveless (page 10 of the notes) so blood flow can go in either direction

52
Q

the eye drains mainly through the

A

vortex veins

53
Q

__ is lateral to optic disc

fovea centralis

55
Q

best acuity and color vision

A

fovea centralis

56
Q

to maintain the retina, it must be oxygenated by 2 arterial sources

the central artery of the retina and ciliary arteries

57
Q

where is the ciliary arteries location

A

in the choroid layer

58
Q

what happens in retinal detachment?

A

neural layers separate and loses blood supply and it dies
