Study Notes
Ocular Anatomy and Physiology Overview
- During the 4th month, the hyaloid system vessels atrophy while zonular fibers stretch from ciliary region to lens capsule.
- Short ciliary arteries form an arterial network within the choroidal stroma, nourishing the outer layers of the retina.
- Ocular perfusion pressure is approximately 50mmHg Diastolic BP - IOP, and low perfusion pressure increases the risk of nerve damage.
- Oculomotor nerve innervates superior/inferior rectus, levator palpebrae, and inferior oblique muscles.
- Orbital and palpebral portions of orbicularis oculi, superior levator palpebrae, and muscle of Muller retract and close eyelids.
- Tear film consists of lipid, aqueous, and mucous layers, each with specific functions and compositions.
- Tear film layers are formed by Meibomian and Zeis glands, main and accessory lacrimal glands, and conjunctival goblet cells.
- Nasolacrimal system includes valves like Rosenmuller, Krause, Hyrtl and Tallefer, and Hasner.
- Lacrimal gland is divided into orbital and palpebral portions, with specific anatomical locations and functions.
- Connective tissues of the orbit, such as periorbita, orbital septum, Tenon’s capsule, and suspensory ligament of Lockwood, serve protective and supportive roles.
- Oculomotor nerve originates from Edwinger-Westphal nucleus for ciliary region and oculomotor nucleus for eye muscles.
- Muscles of Riolan and Horner contribute to eyelid movement, drainage, and tear application.
