Study Notes
Anatomy of the Nasal Cavity and Orbit
- The nasal cavity has the primary function of filtering dust entering the respiratory system.
- The blood supply to the nasal cavity comes from branches of the ophthalmic and maxillary arteries, and the facial vein.
- The nerve supply to the nasal cavity includes the olfactory nerve (CN I), the ophthalmic nerve (V1), and the maxillary nerve (V2).
- The nasal cavity is comprised of bones and cartilage, with three projections on the lateral wall: superior conchae, middle conchae, and inferior conchae.
- Olfaction is fulfilled by the olfactory nerve, which arises from the cerebrum and exits via the cribriform plate.
- Paranasal sinuses are air-filled extensions of the nasal cavity that can produce mucus and drain into the nasal cavity through various ducts.
- The orbit is composed of seven bones and houses the eye.
- The eye is divided into three chambers: anterior, posterior, and vitreous chamber.
- Visual information received by the retina is carried through the optic nerve (CN II), and the crossing of visual fields between the eyes is important for binocular vision.
- The extraocular muscles are responsible for the movements of the eye, which occur around three axes: vertical, transverse, and anteroposterior.
- The oculomotor nerve (CN III) supplies most of the extraocular muscles, while the trochlear nerve (CN IV) supplies the superior oblique muscle, and the abducens nerve (CN VI) supplies the lateral rectus muscle.
- The lacrimal gland secretes lacrimal fluid, which lubricates, protects, and provides nutrients for the eye. It receives sensory and autonomic innervation.
