Sponge: Set up Cornell Notes on pg. 43 Topic: 12 Sponge: Set up Cornell Notes on pg. 43 Topic: 12.4: Structure of the Eye Essential Question: How does the shape of the lens change during accommodation? 12.4: Structure of the Eye 2.1 Atoms, Ions, and Molecules How does the shape of the lens change during accommodation?
Objective SWU: the major anatomy of the eye In groups, SW: create an informational poster identifying their assigned location + function for each part of the eye
REVIEW: Special Senses Location of special senses? Sensory receptors are within large, complex sensory organs in the head Sight in eyes----->Photoreceptors-Rods and cones
Structure of the Eye Which parts of the eye have you heard of before? Or know the location to? Pupil Lens Iris Cornea Retina
Structure of the Eye Structure of the Eye: Hollow Spherical (2.5 cm diameter) Wall has 3 layers Outer fibrous tunic Middle vascular tunic Inner nervous tunic

Objective SWU: the major anatomy of the eye In groups, SW: take a gallery walk of their informational posters to identify the functions + location of each part of the eye

Cornea
Outer Tunic Cornea aka “Window of the eye” Anterior 1/6 of outer eye Transparent No blood vessels Focuses incoming light rays Well supplied with nerves Many pain receptors Cornea
Extrinsic Eye Muscles Sclera
Outer Tunic Sclera Posterior 5/6 of outer eye White portion of eye Protects the eye Attachment for extrinsic muscles Optic nerve pierces the sclera in the back
Choroid Coat
Middle Tunic Choroid Coat Choroid coat Many blood vessels Provides blood supply Many melanocytes (pigments) that absorb extra light Keeps inside of eye dark Choroid Coat
+ suspensory ligaments Ciliary Body + suspensory ligaments
Middle Tunic Ciliary body Anterior portion of middle tunic Secretes aqueous humor Suspensory ligaments Hold lens in position and changes the shape of the lens for accommodation
Aqueous Humor (fluid)
Middle Tunic Aqueous humor (a-quee-us): fluid that circulates through the pupil and into the anterior chamber of the eye Provides nutrients Maintains the shape of the front of eye Removes waste If drainage is blocked—leads to glaucoma which can result in blindness
Lens
Middle Tunic Lens Lies behind iris and pupil Elastic Under constant tension Puts near/far objects into focus As we age, lens becomes larger and less elastic which leads to vision impairment About the size of an 20/20 isn’t perfect– it means you can see @ 20 ft. what the average person sees at 20 ft.
Accommodation Accommodation: Changing of lens shape to view objects Suspensory ligaments Ciliary ligaments Close viewing: Relaxed Contracted Lens thick Far Viewing: Contracted Relaxed Lens thin
Pupil Iris
Middle Tunic Iris Colored portion of eye Lies between cornea and lens Smooth muscles that control the size of the pupils Pupils Controls light intensity Constricted: less light in Dilated: more light in Pigmentation changes happen within first year of life– based on melanocyte production of melanin JUST LIKE YOUR SKIN
Retina Macula Lutea Fovea Centralis Optic Nerve (II) Optic Disc
Inner Tunic Retina Contains visual receptors (photoreceptors) rods/cones Continuous with optic nerve Macula lutea (mac-ula lu-tay-a) –spot in retina; absorbs extra light Fovea (fo-vea) centralis – center of macula lutea; region of retina that produces the sharpest vision; has largest concentration of cone cells Optic disc – Blind spot; contains no visual receptors Nerve fibers leave here and become part of the optic nerve
Posterior Cavity
Inner Tunic Posterior Cavity Largest compartment in eye Contains vitreous (vi-tree-us) humor – jelly-like substance that holds retina flat against choroid coat maintaining pressure Helps transmit light to retina

FAQ Does the eyeball grow? Yes! About 16mm at birth. Grows at 2-3 years then pauses. Then finishes growth at puberty.
