Study Notes
Orbital Region Structure
- The orbital region includes the lacrimal apparatus and eyelids.
Embryonic Origin of Eyes
- The eyes have an ectodermal embryonic origin.
Functions
- The lacrimal apparatus produces and drains tears to lubricate and clean the eyes.
- The eyelids protect the eyes and spread tears.
Blood Supply
- The orbital cavity receives blood from the ophthalmic artery.
Non-Orbital Structure
- The brain is not part of the orbital region.
Optic Vesicles
- The optic vesicles connect to the brain via the optic stalk.
- The optic vesicles induce the formation of the lens placode.
Main Topic
- The main topic of this text is the anatomy and development of the eye.
