Ocular anatomy part 2 - Anatomy of the cornea
The cornea is the transparent, dome-shaped outer layer of the eye that covers the iris, pupil, and anterior chamber. It plays a crucial role in focusing light onto the retina, enabling vision. Here's a breakdown of its anatomy:
1. **Epithelium**: The outermost layer of the cornea is the epithelium. It acts as a barrier to protect the eye from foreign particles, bacteria, and viruses. The epithelium also helps in maintaining the smoothness of the corneal surface, which is essential for clear vision.
2. **Bowman's Layer**: Beneath the epithelium lies Bowman's layer, a thin, tough layer composed mainly of collagen fibers. It provides structural support to the cornea.
3. **Stroma**: The stroma is the thickest layer of the cornea, making up about 90% of its thickness. It consists of collagen fibers arranged in a precise pattern, which gives the cornea its strength, elasticity, and transparency. The regular arrangement of collagen fibers is crucial for maintaining the cornea's clarity.
4. **Descemet's Membrane**: Descemet's membrane is a thin, acellular layer located between the stroma and the endothelium. It serves as a protective barrier against pathogens and helps maintain the shape of the cornea.
5. **Endothelium**: The innermost layer of the cornea is the endothelium, which is a single layer of cells responsible for regulating fluid and nutrient exchange between the cornea and the aqueous humor (the fluid in the anterior chamber of the eye). The endothelium plays a vital role in maintaining the cornea's transparency by pumping excess fluid out of the stroma.
The cornea lacks blood vessels, relying on the tear film and aqueous humor for oxygen and nutrient supply. Its transparency is essential for clear vision, and any damage or irregularity in its structure can lead to visual impairment. Conditions such as corneal dystrophies, infections, and injuries can affect the cornea's anatomy and function, leading to vision problems.

Ocular anatomy part 1 - Anatomy of the eyelids
zhlédnutí 733Před 2 měsíci
The eyelids are crucial structures that help protect the eyes and distribute tears to keep them moist. Here's an overview of the anatomy of the eyelids: 1. Skin : The outermost layer of the eyelids is covered by skin, similar to the skin found elsewhere on the body. The skin of the eyelids is relatively thin and contains hair follicles, sweat glands, and oil glands (sebaceous glands). 2. Orbicu...
We discuss the cornea in the next part
We discuss the ciliary body in the next part 😊
Great. ❤
Thanks
If we do it in podcast it will b more beautiful 😊
Soon sir … all of these topics ♥️
Being recommended to Dr Abiola on CZcams was a blessing after years of suffering from HERPES. I have finally been cured from HERPES thanks Dr Abiola you are indeed a Blessing to this generation #DRABIOLA ......../.

ICO 2017 Clinical Classification
What’s the Chandler classification of orbital infections:
Chandler classification of orbital infections: ▪️Chandler classification is the most commonly used system for dividing the different types of orbital cellulitis. ▪️The system describes five stages: ➖stage I: preseptal orbital cellulitis with inflammation and edema anterior to the orbital septum. ➖stage II: orbital cellulitis with extension of the inflammation and edema beyond the orbital septum. ➖stage III: subperiosteal abscess beneath the periosteum of lamina papyracea. ➖stage IV: orbital abscess and purulent collection within orbit. ➖stage V: cavernous sinus thrombosis after posterior extension of the infection through the superior ophthalmic veins.
