A
O: Levator palpebrae superioris
I: Superior tarsus
A: Assists in elevation of upper lid
Tarsal gland purpose
Modified sebaceous gland
- Lipid secretion (sebum)
- Lubricates edges of eyelids and prevents them from sticking togehter
- Forms a barrier to lacrimal fluid (tears)
- Increases tear viscosity and decreases evaporation from eyeball surface
Ciliary glands
Sebaceous gland of Zeis
Apocrine sweat gland of Moll
Insertion of Levator palpebrae superioris
Inserts into skin of upper lid
Name of lining of inner eyelid?
Papebral conjuctiva
name of lining of inner eye?
Bulbar conjunctiva
Extension of bulbar conjuctiva
From fornices to corneoscleral junction
Fornix superior and inferior
Reflections of palebral and bulbar conjunctiva, represent at potential space
Sensory Innervation of conjuctiva
Upper Palpebral from V1, Lower from V2

Bulbar from V1
palpebral ligament function
hold the tarsus in place, attach to wall of orbit
Tenon's capsule
Thin fascia that envelopes eye just over dural part of optic nerve
Extends from the optic nerve to the corneoscleral junction
Perforated by tendons of extraoccular muscles
Continuous with deep fascia of EOM
Medial and lateral check ligaments
Expansions of fascial sheaths of the horizontal recti. They limit movement of these muscles by attaching to the bony orbit.
Suspensory ligament (lockwood) of the eye
Fascial sheaths of the inferior oblique and inferior rectus muscles. Continuous with Tenon's capsule and attach to check ligaments forming a fascial hammock below the eye
Flow of tears
Lacrimal gland

Bulbar conjunctiva and over cornea
Lacrimal lake (medial canthus)
Lacrimal puncta in medial edges of eyelids
Lacrimal canaliculi
Lacrimal sac
Naso lacrimal duct
Inferior nasal meatus (nasal cavity)
Describe the innervation of the lacrimal gland
Sympathetic (to vasculature of gland)
From SCG along internal carotid artery, into deep petrosal nerve (post ganglionic) through nerve of pterygoid canal, through pterygopalatine ganglion (no synapse), along maxillary nerve, along branch of zygomatico temporal nerve, along lacrimal nerve, to gland

Parasympathetic (secretomotor)
From CN7 (preganglionic) along greter petrosal nerve through nerve of pterygoid canal, into pterygopalatine ganglia, synapse here, up along maxillary nerve, along zygomaticotemporal nerve, along lacrimal gland to lacrimal gland.

Sensory (to capsule of gland, upper eyelid and bulbar and upper palpebral conjunctiva)
From lacrimal nerve from Trigeminal opthalmic division
Innervation of Extrinsic (Extraoccular) Eye muscles
LR6 SO4 AO3
Origin of extrinsic eye muscles

Insertion of extrinsic eye muscles
All rectus = Common tendinous ring (anulus of Zinn)
