BLOOD AND NERVE SUPPLY OF
EYE AND OPTIC NERVE
Presenter – Dr. Om Patel
Moderator – Dr. Rashi Sharma
Arterial supply
• Internal carotid artery
• External carotid artery
Arterial supply
• All structures are supplied by branches of
Internal Carotid Artery
• Except eyelids and conjunctiva which receives
blood supply from the branches of both
internal and external carotid artery

BLOOD AND NERVE SUPPLY OF EYE
Post.Ciliary
(supply the
choroid and
parts of the
optic nerve)
Internal carotid a.
Supratrochlear a. &
Dorsal Nasal a.
Ant. ethmoidal a.
Post. ethmoidal a.
Ophthalmic a.
Lacrimal a.
Muscular Branches.
(Ant.ciliary arteries
are derived from it)
Central Retinal Art.
Branches of ophthalmic artery:
Central retinal artery
• First branch from the ophthalmic artery
• End arteries
• Divides into equal superior & inferior branches,
then another division (nasal & temporal)
Central retinal artery
Runs along optic nerve, then at about 1.25cm behind eyeball it pierces the
dural & arachnoid sheaths of optic nerve, enters eyeball through lamina
cribrosa
Central retinal artery
9
Meningeal Branches
Central Collateral
Branches
Pial Sheath
Macular Nerve
Fibres
Two Ciliary arteries (on each side of
the optic nerve)
• Divide into 2 long posterior ciliary
arteries and ~20 short posterior
ciliary arteries
• The short posterior ciliary arteries
directly supply the choroid and take
part in formation of Circle of Zinn
• The long posterior ciliary arteries
travel in the suprachoroidal space
anteriorly then supply the choroid
anteriorly via recurrent branches
Ciliary arteries
Circle Of Zinn
• Circular anastomosis
between short posterior
ciliary arteries when they
are piercing the sclera
• Gives branches to choriod,
optic nerve and pial
network
• Cilioretinal artery – helps to
maintain vision in case of
CRA occlusion
Anterior Ciliary arteries
– 7 arteries 2 for each rectus
muscle except LR muscle
– Takes part in formation of
Major arterial circle along
with long posterior ciliary
artery
– Supplies ciliary body and
iris
Eyelids
• Arterial blood supply:
– Lateral Palpebral artery
(from lacrimal artery)
– Medial Palpebral artery
( from dorsal nasal artery)
• Marginal and peripheral
palpebral arcades
Venous drainage:
• Medially: to
angular vein
• Laterally: to
superficial
temporal vein
Nerve supply:
Sensory Supply
• Lower lid:
– infra-orbital (from V2)
– Medial Aspect  infra-
trochlear nerve (V1)
• Upper lid:
– Supra-orbital nerve
– Supra-trochlear nerve
– Lacrimal nerve (v1)
Nerve Supply - Eyelids
• Arrangement of sensory nerves
– Submuscular plane
– Site of injection for anesthesia
• Motor Supply
– Facial Nerve – Orbicularis muscle
– Oculomotor nerve – LPS
Conjunctiva
• Palpebral conjunctiva marginal and peripheral arcades
(from medial and lateral palpebral artery)
• Bulbar conjunctiva  anterior and posterior conjuctival
arteries
Conjunctiva
• Venous drainage:
– superior and inferior ophthalmic vein
• Nerve supply:
– Long ciliary nerve (nasociliary branch of ophthalmic nerve)
Blood supply of the AC
Long posterior ciliary artery anastomose with anterior ciliary artery
– Major arterial arcade (ciliary stroma)
– Minor arterial arcade (At the collarete of the iris)
• They are the major blood supply to the iris and ciliary body
• Venous drainage:  minor venous circle directly into the
vortex veins (not into the corresponding major circle)
BLOOD AND NERVE SUPPLY OF EYE
Macula Region
