what lines the bones of the orbit
periorbita (periosteum)
what are the 7 bones of the orbit
palatine
zygomatic
maxillary
lacriminal
ethmoid
frontal
sphenoid
the Orbit has 4 walls an apex and a base. What forms the superior wall
the frontal and lesser wing of spenoid bones
where is the lacriminal gland located
the lacriminal fossa of the orbit
the Orbit has 4 walls an apex and a base. What forms the medial wall
ethmoid, frontal, lacriminal, and spenoid bones.
what is contained on the medial wall of the orbit
the fossa for the lacrimal sac and nasolacrimal duct
the Orbit has 4 walls an apex and a base. What forms the base (floor)?
maxilla, zygomatic and palatine bones
the Orbit has 4 walls an apex and a base. What forms the lateral wall?
Zygomatic and spenoid bones
the Orbit has 4 walls an apex and a base. where is the apex located ?
at the optic canal and lesser wing of the sphenoid
why can the orbit fracture so easily
because the walls are so thin especially the medial and inferior walls.
what is exopthalmus and what causes it?
protrusion of the eyeball
caused by an orbital tumor pushing into the orbit
what nerve would an orbital tumor press against
the optic nerve
what covers the lids inside?
conjunctiva
what forms the skeletin of the lids?
the tarsal plates
what is embedded in the tarsal plates and what do they do
taral glands and they sucrete lipid material
what is the large sebacious gland of teh eyelid
ciliary gland
what muscle of the eye raises the eyelid
the levator palpabrae superioris
what muscle of the eye aids in blinking and shutting the eyelid
the orbicularis oculi
you are putting on macara and need to keep your eyelid wide open. What muscle helps you do that?
levator palpabrae suprioris
what stimulates the lacrimal gland
parasympahtetic nerves of CNVII
where do the ducts of the lacrimal gland open up to
superior conjunctive fornix
describe the flow of tears
starts from lacrimal gland and opens in the sup conjctv fornix, into lacrimal lake, into lacrimal caniculi, into the lacimal sac and finally down the nasolacriminal duct
why does your nose have to be blown when you cry
the nasolacriminal duct extends inferiorly into the nose and open at the inferior meatus of the nasal cavity!
what are the extraocular muscles of the eye
supior, medial lateral and inferior recctus, supior & Inferior oblique and levator palpabrae
you see a cute guy sitting right next to you but you don't move your head to look, just your eyes. what muscle moves your eye laterally? and medially? what nerve innervates these muscles?
laterally--lateral rectus CN VI

medially--medial rectus CN III
where do the three terminal branches of the opthalmic enter the orbit
the superior orbital fissure
what type of innervation do the three branches of the opthalmic nerve supply to the ant orbit (lacrimal gland, and eylids) face and scalp????
SENSORY
what are the three branches off the opthalmic nerve
frontal, lacrimal, and nasocilliary nn
*****whats the difference b/w the innervation of the Long ciliary nasocilliary nerv and the short one?
long one passes thru to eyeball WITHOUT entering the cilliary ganglion!!!!! the short one does and picks up postganglionic parasympathetic fibers
what are the 5 nerves of the orbit
optic n--CN 2, Opthalmic division of CN 5, Oculomotor, trochlear, and abducens
what is the largest branch of the opthalmic located superficial to the levator palpebrae superioris?
the Frontal N
what are the two branches of the Frontal Nerve
Supraorbital and Supratrochlear
what is the smallest branch of the opthalmic that enters the orbit thru the superior orbital fissure?

Is it sensory or motor
the Lacriminal N

Sensory to the lacriminal
what nerves are sensory to the orbit and which are motor?
sensory: the nerves of the opthalmic division (frontal, lacriminal, nasocilliary)

Motor: oculomotor, trochlear and abducens
Oculomotor nerve
supplies motor to all muscles of the orbit except later rectus and sup oblique
trochlear nerve
motor n to the sup obliqu muscle
abducens nerve
motor nerve to the lateral rectus
where do parasympathetic fibers of the ANS enter the orbit
from the smooth muscle of the brainstem and enter the oculomotor nerve which carries the preganglionic fibers into the orbit
Once inside the orbit how do preganglionic parasympathetic fivers leave CN III?
its motor root
where do the pregangionic parasympathetic neurons terminate and the postganglionic neurons begin?
the ciliary ganglion--located in the orbit along the posteriorlateral side of Optic N.
how do the POSTganglionic fibers leave

what do the parasympathetic fibers supply?
shot short cilliary nerves to the eyeball.

they supply the smooth muscles of the eyeball
How do the SYPMATHETIC fibers get into the orbit
they enter from the superior cervical ganglion on the blood vessels
what is the artery that supplies blood to the orbit and what vein drains blood away from it?
the opthalmic artery and vein
how does the opthalmic artery get into the orbit
through the optic canal
what are the branches of the opthalmic artery
supraorbital a
supratrochlear a
lacriminal a
central artery of the retina
what are the branches of the opthalmic vein
superior and inferior opthalmic vein
what do the superior and inferior opthalmic veins pass through?
superior orbital fissure --and into the cavernous sinus inside the skull.
a pt presents with impaired vision and protrusion of her eye balls (exopthalmos). what is a likely cause of this
a tumor growing in her sphenoid sinus that is pressing on the optic nerve and back of eyeball
