Overview
• Purpose of the Presentation:
• - To explore the anatomy and functionality of
the human eyeball.
• - To understand how different structures
contribute to vision.
• Key Topics:
• - Functional anatomy of the eyeball
• - Conjunctiva, cornea, and lens
Functional Anatomy of the Eyeball
• Shape: Globe-shaped, ~24mm in diameter.
• Segments:
• - Anterior (1/6th of the eyeball).
• - Posterior (5/6th of the eyeball).
• Key Features:
• - Visual and optic axes.
• - Retina lines the posterior wall.
Orbital Cavity
• Definition: Bony cavity holding the eyeball.
• Function: Provides cushioning via areolar
tissue.
• Attachment: Ocular muscles connect the
eyeball to the cavity.
Eyelids
• Protective Role: Shields from particles and
light.
• Structure:
• - Contains cilia (100–150 in upper lid, 50–75 in
lower lid).
• - Includes Meibomian and sebaceous glands.
• Palpebral Fissure: Opening between eyelids
(~25mm long).
Conjunctiva
• Definition: Thin mucous membrane covering
the eyeball and eyelids.
• Types:
• - Bulbar portion (eyeball).
• - Palpebral portion (eyelid).
• Lubrication: Maintained by tears from the
lacrimal gland.
Lacrimal Gland and Tears
• Location: Upper outer wall of the eye socket.
• Function:
• - Produces tears to lubricate the conjunctiva.
• - Prevents debris accumulation.
Cornea
• Definition: Transparent convex layer covering
the iris and pupil.
• Structure:
• - Five layers (epithelium, Bowman's
membrane, etc.).
• Properties:
• - Refractive index: 1.376.
• - Refractive power: 43D.
Limbus and Pathology
• Limbus: Transitional zone between cornea and
sclera (~1mm).
• Blood Supply: Contains the superficial
marginal plexus.
• Pathological Note: Cornea may vascularize
under certain conditions.
Overview of the Middle Layer
• Components: Choroid, Ciliary Body, and Iris.
• Role: Supports vascularization and regulates
light entry.
Choroid
• Definition: Thin vascular layer between sclera
and retina.
• Structure: Contains capillary plexus and blood
vessels.
• Function: Supplies nutrients to the retina.
Ciliary Body
• Parts:
• 1. Orbiculus ciliaris (posterior two-thirds).
• 2. Ciliary muscles (longitudinal and circular).
• 3. Ciliary processes (~70 finger-like
projections).
• Function: Anchors the lens via suspensory
ligaments.
Iris
• Definition: Thin circular diaphragm in front of
the lens.
• Muscles:
• - Constrictor Pupillae (narrows the pupil).
• - Dilator Pupillae (widens the pupil).
• Function: Regulates light entry like a camera
diaphragm.
Overview of the Retina
• Definition: Delicate, light-sensitive innermost
layer.
• Location: Extends from optic disk to the ora
serrata.
• Role: Contains photoreceptors for vision.
Retina Layers (Part 1)
• 1. Pigment Epithelium: Absorbs light, prevents
reflection.
• 2. Rods and Cones Layer: Photoreceptors for
light and color.
• 3. External Limiting Membrane: Supports
retina.
• 4. Outer Nuclear Layer: Contains nuclei of rods
and cones.
Retina Layers (Part 2)
• 5. Outer Plexiform Layer: Synapse area for
rods/cones and bipolar cells.
• 6. Inner Nuclear Layer: Contains bipolar cells
and association neurons.
• 7. Inner Plexiform Layer: Links bipolar cells to
ganglionic cells.
• 8. Ganglion Cell Layer: Source of optic nerve
axons.
Lens Structure
• Capsule: Elastic covering of the lens.
• Anterior Epithelium: Produces lens fibers.
• Lens Substance: Concentric layers of prismatic
fibers.
Lens Function
• Nature: Transparent, biconvex, and avascular.
• Function:
• - Refracts light to focus on the retina.
• - Refractive power: 23D.
Summary of Key Points
• Eyeball structure supports visual processes.
• Retina and lens play critical roles in image
formation.
• Protective mechanisms include eyelids and
tears.
