  • Fibrous tunic – outside layer
    Vascular tunic- middle layer
    Nervous coat - inner layer
  • Sclera - White connective tissue layer
  • Cornea
    • Transparent, central anterior portion / anterior 1/6, completely avascular
  • Sclera -corneal junction
  • Choroid is blood-rich nutritive tunic in 2/3 of eye
  • Pigment (melanocytes) prevents light from scattering
  • Iris - Pigmented part ; eye color
  • Pupil – round opening in the center
  • 2 smooth muscles:
    Sphincter pupillae – circumferential
    Dilator pupillae - radial
  • Ciliary process: formation of Aqueous humor
  • Ciliary muscles: Smooth muscle for visual accommodation
  • Ciliary conule fibers: suspensory ligament that holds the lens
    1. Aqueous humor is watery fluid - between the lens and cornea
  • 2. Vitreous humor - Colorless , gel-like substance behind the lens
  • Lens is transparent biconvex body
  • LENS - transparent biconvex body situated immediately behind the pupil.
  • Sensory Tunic (Retina) - contains receptor cells (photoreceptors)
  • Rods - Long narrow cells
  • Cones – plumper cells with shorter conical outer segments
  • REFRACTIVE MEDIA OF THE EYE - the transparent structures traversed by the light rays on the way to the photoreceptors of the retina.
  • auditory ba: 41 , 42
  • eyebrow- protet tge etes vy preventing perspiration from running down the forehead and into eyes
  • eyelids- protect eye from foreign object
  • conjunctiva- thin, transparent mucous membrane
  • lacrimal apparatus- consist of lacrimal gland
  • Lacrimal gland- produces tears
  • extrinsic eye muscle- responsible for movement of eyeball
  • eyeball- hollow, fluid-filled sphere
  • fibrous tunic- sclera and cornea, protects the eye
  • SCLERA- white outer connective tissue layer of posterior five-sixths of fibrous tunic
  • cornea- transparent anterior sixth of the eye, permit light to enter
  • choroid- very thin structure consist of a vascular network causing it to appera black
  • black color absorbs light
  • cillary body- continous with choroid
  • iris- colored part of the eye
  • pupil- muscle surrounding the opening
  • retina- covers the posterior five-sixths of the eye
  • pigmented retina- keep light from reflecting black into eye
  • sensory retina- contains photoreceptor cell
