2-4
do cats have upper eyelashes?
technically no; however the first row of hairs are close enough that some consider them eyelashes

also seen in the elephant and hyrax
What is the function of the eyelid (3)?
1. protection/exclusion from light
2. production of a portion of liquid tears
3. spreading of the precorneal tear film/sweeping away of foreign material
What are the 4 histologic layers of the eyelid?
1. skin
2. orbicularis oculi
3. tarsus and stromal layer
4. palpebral conjunctival layer
glands of Zeis
sebaceous glands of the eyelid
glands of Moll
aka ciliary glands; modified sweat glands of the eyelid
glands of Kraus
found in the human; accessory sweat glands of the conjunctiva
meibomian glands
tarsal glands that contribute to the outer oily layer of the preocular tear film
what large terrestrial animal lacks meibomian glands?
elephant
what are the mucus forming cells found in the conjunctiva?
goblet cells
where is the highest concentration of goblet cells in the dog?
lower nasal and middle fornix and lower tarsal portion of the palpebral conjunctiva
what is the blood supply of the conjunctiva?
branches of the anterior ciliary arteries (branches of the external ophthalmic artery
What cells dominate the diffuse portion of the CALT?
CD-8 positive suppressor cells, cytotoxic effector cells
