  3. The Eye at a Glance • Function of the Eye • Contains sensory receptors for vision

  4. The Eye at a Glance • Structures of the Eye • Sclera • Choroid • Retina • Eyeball • Conjunctiva • Eye muscles • Eyelids • Lacrimal apparatus

  5. The Eye Illustrated

  6. Eye Combining Forms • ambly/o – dull or dim • aque/o – water • blast/o – immature, embryonic • blephar/o – eyelid • chromat/o – color • conjunctiv/o – conjunctiva • corne/o – cornea • cycl/o – ciliary muscle

  7. Eye Combining Forms • dacry/o – tear; tear duct • dipl/o – double • emmetr/o – correct, proper • glauc/o – gray • ir/o – iris • irid/o – iris • kerat/o – cornea • lacrim/o – tears

  8. Eye Combining Forms • macul/o – macula lutea • mi/o – lessening • mydr/i – widening • nyctal/o – night • ocul/o – eye • ophthalm/o – eye • opt/o – eye, vision • optic/o – eye, vision

  9. Eye Combining Forms • papill/o – optic disk • phac/o – lens • phot/o – light • presby/o – old age • pupill/o – pupil • retin/o – retina • scler/o – sclera • stigmat/o – point

  10. Eye Combining Forms • uve/o – vascular • vitre/o – glassy

  11. Eye Suffixes • –ician specialist • –metrist one who measures • –opia vision condition • –opsia vision condition • –tropia turned condition

  12. Anatomy and Physiology • Ophthalmology (Ophth) is study of the eye • Eyeball • Organ of sight • Transmits external image using sensory impulses via optic nerve to brain • Brain translates sensory impulses into image

  13. Anatomy and Physiology • External structures important for vision • In addition to eyeball • Eye muscles • Eyelids • Conjunctiva • Lacrimal apparatus

  15. The Eyeball • Composed of three layers: • Sclera • Choroid • Retina

  16. Sclera • Outermost layer • Tough protective layer • Another term for sclera is white of eye • Anterior portion is cornea

  17. Figure 13.1The internal structures of the eye.

  18. Cornea • Anterior portion of sclera • Clear, transparent • Allows light to enter • Bends, or refracts, light rays

  19. Figure 13.1The internal structures of the eye.

  20. Choroid • Middle layer • Provides blood supply for eye • Anterior portion: • Iris • Pupil • Ciliary body

  21. Figure 13.1The internal structures of the eye.

  22. Iris and Pupil • Iris • Colored portion of eye • Smooth muscle that changes size of pupil • Pupil • Opening in center of iris • Allows light to enter into eyeball

  23. Ciliary Body and Lens • Lens • Behind iris • Not actually part of choroid layer • Attached to ciliary body

  24. Ciliary Body and Lens • Ciliary body • Pulls on edge of lens • Changes shape of lens so it can focus light onto retina

  25. Figure 13.1The internal structures of the eye.

  26. Retina • Contains sensory receptor cells that detect light rays • Rods • Active in dim light • See gray tones • Cones • Active only in bright light • Color vision

  27. Figure 13.1The internal structures of the eye.

  28. Retina • Macula lutea • Area of retina where image forms • Fovea centralis • Depression in center of macula lutea • High number of cones • Point of clearest vision

  29. Figure 13.1The internal structures of the eye.

  30. Optic Disk • Point where the optic nerve leaves eyeball • Retinal blood vessels enter and leave through optic disk • No rods or cones • Results in blind spot in each eye’s field of vision

  31. Figure 13.2Photograph of the retina of the eye. The optic disk appears yellow and the retinal arteries radiate out from it.(Photo Researchers, Inc.)

  32. Eye Fluids • Aqueous humor • Watery fluid • Located between cornea and lens • Vitreous humor • Semi-solid gel • Located between lens and retina

  33. Muscles of the Eye • Six muscles that connect eyeball to skull • 4 rectus muscles pull straight • 2 oblique muscles pull on an angle • Contract in combination to change direction in which each eye is looking

  34. Figure 13.3The external eye muscles.

  35. Eyelids • A pair cover each eyeball • Provide protection from foreign particles, injury, sun, and trauma • Both upper and lower edges have eyelashes or cilia that protect eye from foreign particles • Sebaceous glands located in eyelids secrete a lubricating oil onto surface of eyeball

  36. Figure 13.1The internal structures of the eye.

  37. Conjunctiva • A mucous membrane • Forms continuous covering on underside of each eyelid and across anterior surface of each eyeball • Protects eyeball

  38. Figure 13.1The internal structures of the eye.

  39. Lacrimal Apparatus • Lacrimal gland • Located under outer upper corner of each eyelid • Produces tears • Tears wash and lubricate anterior surface of eyeball

  40. Lacrimal Apparatus • Lacrimal ducts • Located in inner corner of eye socket • Collect tears • Drain into nasolacrimal duct • Ultimately drain into nasal cavity

  41. Figure 13.5The structure of the lacrimal apparatus.

  42. How We See • Light rays pass through: • Cornea • Pupil • Aqueous humor • Lens • Vitreous humor • Then strike retina • Stimulating rods and cones

  43. Figure 13.6The path of light through the cornea, pupil, lens, and striking the retina.

  44. How We See • Upside-down image forms on retina • Optic nerve transmits this image to brain • Brain turns upside-down image into right-side up image

  45. Figure 13.7The image formed on the retina is inverted. The brain rights the image as part of the interpretation process.

  46. Vision • Vision requires four mechanisms: • Coordination of external eye muscles so that both eyes move together • Correct amount of light admitted by pupil • Correct focus of light upon retina by lens • Optic nerve transmitting sensory images to brain

  47. Additional Combining Forms • aden/o – gland • angi/o – vessel • bi/o – life • cry/o – cold • cyst/o – sac • esthes/o – sensation, feeling • myc/o – fungus • ton/o – tone • xer/o – dry

  48. Additional Suffixes • -al pertaining to • -algia pain • -ar pertaining to • -ary pertaining to • -atic pertaining to • -ectomy surgical removal • -edema swelling • -graphy process of recording

  49. Additional Suffixes • -ia condition • -ic pertaining to • -ism state of • -itis inflammation • -logist one who studies • -logy study of • -malacia softening • -meter instrument to measure

  50. Additional Suffixes • -metry process of measuring • -oma tumor • -osis abnormal condition • -otomy cutting into • -ous pertaining to • -pathy disease • -pexy surgical fixation • -phobia fear
