rounded portion of ciliary body

in the uveoscleral pathway, aqueous humor drains into the ____

supraciliaris

the circular muscle fibers of the ciliary muscle are located in...

scleral spur and uveal meshwork

The pars plana has a ___pattern

serrated

pigmented epithelium: cell type, joined by.., shape

Nonpigmented epithelium cell type/what is it joined by/shape?

single layer of epithelial cells; desmosomes, gap junctions, tight junctions; columnar shape

ciliary muscle is composed of

smooth muscle fibers with longitudinal, radial, and circular orientations

what is the purpose of the loose layers of collagen in the supraciliaris?

the nonpigmented epithelium is ____ to ____ with the pigmented epithelium and is joined by ____

apex to apex; gap junctions

nonpigmented epithelium actively secretes ________ into the posterior chamber

aqueous humor

What is the purpose of tight junctions in the nonpigmented epithelium?

blood-aqueous-barrier; forces all molecules to pass through the epithelial cells' membrane

choroidal stroma

The major arterial circle of the iris (MACI) is present in the....

ciliary stroma

How many ciliary processes are located in the pars plicata?

70-80; projections of the stroma covered by epithelium which extend into the posterior chamber; produce aqueous humor; regions b/w processes are called valleys of Kuhnt (lesser processes extend from the valleys)

diffusion

Water and electrolytes of the MACI diffuse from the ____ into the stroma

fenestrated capillaries

flatter region of ciliary body; extend from the posterior pars plicata to the ora serrata

Aqueous humor passes from the pigmented epithelium to the nonpigmented epithelium via...

gap junctions

aqueous humor travels from pigmented to nonpigmented through _______

gap junctions

Ciliary body

heavily pigmented ring-shaped structure surrounding the lens

Anteriorly, the ciliary body is continuous with...

iris, uveal meshwork, and scleral spur

the ciliary stroma is composed of...

loose connective tissue (collagen, fibroblasts, ground substance) with melanocytes and WBCs

the anterior pigmented epithelium is continuous with...

pigmented epithelium of the iris; basement membranes are continuous with one another

the posterior pigmented epithelium is continous with

pigmented epithelium of the reina (RPE); basement membranes are continuous with one another

outer to the nonpigmented epithelium is the...

pigmented epithelium; aqueous humor travels from pigmented to nonpigmented through gap junctions

posteriorly, the ciliary body is continuous with...
