Learning Objectives
By the end of this presentation you will be able to:
1. Recognize major components of the eye
2. Have a basic understanding of how the eye works
3. Understand how eye disease affects the components of the
eye
EMBRYOLOGY (cont.)
Invagination of both the
optic vesicle to form Optic
cup and the optic stalk to
form Choroidal fissure
inferiorly.
Surface ectoderm
invaginate to form the lens
vesicle.
Mesodermal tissues invade
the developing eye to
share in vascular, muscular
and supportive tissues of
the eye.

Eye Movements
Yaw
gaze shifts L/R
Pitch
gaze shifts up/down
Roll
eye rotates around line of
gaze (torsion)
In each position of gaze, one muscle of each eye is the primary
mover of that eye, and is yoked to the primary mover of the
other eye
