    • Retinal nerve fibers converging on disc and pass out of eyeball forming a bundle or retinal fibers
    • Optic nerve. Tranmits visual impulses fromoptic disc and optic chiasm
  138. Optic chiasm
    Optic nerve from each eyeball travels medially and posteriorly to meet at the base of the cerebrum where theu form an X shaped structure calledoptic chiasm retinal fibers from the temporal halfremain on that side of the brain,retinal fibers from nasal half cross over to opposite side of the brain the crossover is called decussating
  139. Optic tracts
    • Bilateral groups of decussated nerve fibers
    • Temporal retinal fibers from the ipsilateral eye
    • Nasal retinal fibers from the ipsilateral eye
    • Project posteriorly from the optic chiasmfor a short distance
    • Thentraval within the brain to end up at the lageral geniculate bodies of the thalumus
  140. Lateral gamiculate bodies
    Areas kn the thalmus of the brain where the opticfibers end, new fibers are relayed to the higher level,the occipital lobe of cerebrum by optic radiations
  141. Optical radiations
    Pathway of the nerve cells from the lateral. Ganiculate bodies to the occipital lobe of cerebrum
  142. Visual cortex
    • Medial aspect of occipital lobe
    • Specialized for interpretaion of impulse coming from LGB
    • Wjere visual interpretaion takes place
  143. How we see
    • Superior visualizes inferior
    • Inferior visualizes superior
    • Temporal visualizes nasal
    • Nasal visualizes temporal
  144. Pupillary response
    • Retinal primary response of rods and cones converting light into impulse
    • Novisual system felies on different kinds of cells called INTRINSICALLY PHOTOSENSATIVE RETINAL GANGLION CELLS ipRG
    • irPG cells dont appear to be involved in vision but are directly light sensative and play a crucial role in Pupillary response
    • Ebven in pts with No Light Preception have Pupillary response
  145. Pupillary pathway has. Two types of pathways?
    • Efferent
    • Afferent
  146. Afferent pathway
    • Takes sensory signal to brain for processing
    • LIGHT SIGNAL
    • From retinal irPG cells
    • To oprtic nerve
    • Follows vusual pathway throught chiasm and optic tract
    • Splits befor reaching lateral geniculate body travels to pretectal nucleus
    • Afferent fibers travel from pretectal nucleus to Edinger-Westphal nucleus. (CN III Oculomotor ) where interpretaion of light from both pretectal nucleus
    • ACCOMMODATION SIGNAL
    • Stimulated by retinal blur
    • Begins with rods and cones
    • Follows visual pathway to visual cortex
    • From visual cortex to Ediger-Westphal nucleus
  147. Efferent pathway
    • Takes motor signal from brain to iris
    • Identical for both light and accommodation signals
    • Begins ad Edigner-Westphal nucleus
    • Signal transmitted throughout CN III Oculomotor
    • Travels through Ciliary ganglion and to Pupillary sphincter muscle
  148. Parasympathetic pathway
    Constricts pupil
  149. Sympathetic
    Dilates
  150. Pupil testing of efferent pathway reflex
    • Direct Pupillary reflex
    • Consenual Pupillary reflex
    • Accommodative Pupillary reflex
  151. Direct Pupillary reflex. Efferent pathway
    A Pupillary constriction in one eye caused when light is shined inthat eye
  152. Consenual Pupillary reflex. Efferent pathway
    A Pupillary constriction in one eye when light is shined in opposite eye
  153. Accommodative Pupillary reflex. Efferent pathway
    A Pupillary constriction as a result of the act of accommodation
  154. Afferent Pupillary reflex testing
    • Swinging flashlight test
    • Compares direct and Consenual. Reflexes in same eye
    • Gives relative indication of functioning of each eye and optic nerve
    • Abnormal responseis called relative afferent Pupillary defect inrelation to other eye
  155. Anomalkes of pupil
    • Anisocoria
    • Polycoria
    • Corectopia
  156. Anisocoria
    • Difference of. 3mm or greater in pupil size
    • Simple Anisocoria
    • 15-25% of population
    • Pupils respon normal no medical signifigance may alternate from side to side
    • Difference between Pupils will be similar under both phototopic and scotopic conditions
    • PTHOALOGICAL ANISOCORIA
    • Pupils do not respond normally
    • Further investigation as to why
  157. Polycoria
    • More than one pupil
    • Usually due to trauma
    • Maybe surgicaly induced
  158. Corectopia
    • Distoted pupil
    • Usually due to trauma
