Oculus. Anatomical terms. 1. Coats of the eye bulbus oculi -the globe of the eye; eyeball tunica fibrosa bulbi -fibrous (outer) coat a. tunica sclera= sclera, ae, f * gr. scleros -hard sclera; the white of the eye b. cornea, ae, f -cornea; front part covering iris, pupil tunica vasculosa bulbi -vascular (middle) tunic= uvea, ae, f * lat. uva -grape;because it has grape-like appearance when stripped intact from a cadaveric eye a. iris, idis, f -iris * Iris -from the Greek goddess of the rainbow, because of the many colours of the iris b. pupilla, ae, f -pupil; from Latin pupilla, originally "little girl-doll," diminutive of pupa "girl; doll" , so called from the tiny image one sees of oneself reflected in the eye of another c. corpus ciliare -ciliary body d. choroidea,ae, f -choroid; vascular layer tunica interna bulbi -inner coat = retina, ae, f *lat. rete -net, literally "net-like tunic a. macula lutea -macula; literally yellow spot b. discus (papilla) nervi optici -optic disc c. punctum caecum -blind spot 1. 2. 3. 4.

Anatomical terms. 2. Internal structures 1. camerae bulbi oculi -eye chambers a. camera anterior bulbi -anterior chamber b. camera posterior bulbi -posterior chamber c. humor aquosus -aqueous humor, occupies the anterior and posterior chambers of the eye 2. lens, lentis, f -eye lens * from Latin lens (genitive lentis) "a lentil," on analogy of the double-convex shape 3. corpus vitreum -vitreous body (Lat. glass-like ) the clear gel that fills the space between the lens and the retina of the eyeball
Term-elements 2. Internal structures 1. camerae bulbi oculi a. camera anterior bulbi b. camera posterior bulbi c. humor aquosus 2. lens, lentis, f 3. corpus vitreum a. humor vitreus 1. - fluids (humor aquosus, humor vitreus) -PHAK-(o) / -PHAKIA *phakos - lentil, eye lens, lens -VITRE-/ -HYAL-(o) c. -END-OPHTHALM-used for the intraocular 2. 3. * hyal- word-forming element in scientific compounds meaning "of glass; glass-like, transparent," from Greek hyalos "glass, clear alabaster, crystal lens used as a burning glass," apparently a non-Greek word, said to be of Egyptian origin (glass was first made in Egypt). Hence terms as hyaline mean transparent, glass-like

Additional, protecting structures 1. 2. 3. musculi externi bulbi oculi -7 extraocular muscles supercilium, i, n pl. supercilia -eyebrow/s palpebra, ae, f (superior/inferior) -upper / lower eyelid a. angulus oculi -the angle formed by the union of the upper and lower eyelids b. cilia pl. -eyelashes tunica conjunctiva -the delicate membrane lining the eyelids (palpebral conjunctiva) and covering the eyeball (ocular conjunctiva). apparatus lacrimalis -lacrimal apparatus * lacrima -tear a. glandula lacrimalis -lacrimal gland, gland that secretes tears b. ductus nasolacrimalis -nasal duct; the downward continuation of the lacrimal sac c. punctum lacrimale -* Lat. punctum -dot; an opening of a lacrimal duct on the edge of the eyelid d. saccus lacrimalis -lacrimal sac 4. 5.

Term-elements. Eye[s]; sight; vision lat. visus, us, m = gr. -OP-(o), ...-OPIA/ -OPT-, OPTIC-(o) / -OPS-, -OPSI-, ...-OPSIA ambly-opia *gr. ambly-dulled+ ops -eye; weakening of the eyesight without any apparent defect in the eyes, calles also lazy eye click a-sthen-opia *gr. sthen-strenght; a fatigue/tiring of the eyes, usually characterized by discomfort, dimness of vision, and headache my-opia - nearsightedness, short sight ; hyper-metr-opia = hyper-opia - farsightedness, ; dipl-opia *gr. dipl- double; double vision, a single object appears double presby-opia*gr. presby- old, farsightedness, associated with aging hemeral-opia* gr. hemera - day; inability to see as clearly in bright light as in dim light; day blindness an-opsia= an-opia = a-bleps-ia-lat. caecitas -blindness amaurosis - blindness, esp. when occurring without observable damage to the eye: amaurosis fugax - (Lat. fugax meaning fleeting, Gr. amaurosis meaning darkening, dark, or obscure) is a painless temporary loss of vision in one or both eyes. hemi-an-opsia= hemi-an-opia-loss of vision in either the whole left or the whole right half of the field of vision.; scotoma -gr. skot- dark; an area of diminished vision within the visual field. dys-chromat-opsia- color blindness mono-chromat-ismus = a-chromat-opsia- condition of being completely colorblind. di-chromat-ismus -only two of the three fundamental colors can be distinguished
Ophthalmology. General terms - conditions entropion/ectropion palpebrae -the turning inwards / outwards of the edge of the eyelid click horde-olum -medical name for a stye of the eye; hordeolum externum/internum click miosis - constriction of the pupil of the eye (both normal and pathol.); mydriasis - dilation of the eye pupil click phot-o-phobia *phot- light *phobia -fear; abnormal sensitivity to or intolerance of light cor-ectopia- displacement of the eye's pupil from its normal, central position nystagmus - *gr. nystagm-nodding, drowsiness; involuntary eye movement; dancing eye ex-ophthalm-us /en-ophthalm-us - protrusion/ retrodisplacement of the eyeball from/within the orbit, caused by disease or injury. ophthalm-o-plegia-paralysis or weakness of the eye muscles epiphora = dacry-o-rrhoea- excessive flow of tears a-stigmat-ismus - type of refractive error caused by the irregularities in the shape of a person's cornea click cataracta - *gr. kataraktes- waterfall, broken water; a kind of portcullis - opacity/clouding of the lens of the eye or its capsule glauc-oma- * gr.-"cataract, opacity of the lens," perhaps from glaukommatos "gray-eyed," cataracts and glaucoma not distinguished until c. 1705. In the Hippocratic Aphorisms the term glaucoma was used to describe blindness coming on in advancing years associated with a glazed appearance of the pupil. Modern term glaucoma means a group of degenerative eye diseases characterized by damage to the optic nerve usually due to excessively high intraocular pressure - hypertensio intraocularis
Pathological conditions. glaucoma primarium / secundarium: diabeticum - Open-angle glaucoma, also called primary or chronic glaucoma/ Secondary glaucoma - may be caused by an eye injury, inflammation, certain drugs such as steroids and advanced cases of cataract or diabetes (sub) luxatiolentis traumatica (=ectopialentis)-(partial) dislocation of eye lens due to trauma ablatioretinae (traumatica) - detachment of the retina cataracta congenita: hereditaria / acquisita: senilis - congenital form of cataract / acquired for of cataract: senile (in old age) etc. strabismus - strabism; squint eye - condition in which the eyes do not properly align with each other when looking at an object strabismus convergens = esotropia- the eyes are crossed ("cross eyed") strabismus divergens = exotropia the eyes diverge ("lazy eyed" or "wall eyed") click episcleritis syphilitica / tuberculosainflammation of the layer on top of the sclera caused by syphilis / tuberculosis iridocyclitis acuta / subacuta acute / subacute inflammation of the iris and of the ciliary body degeneratio maculae luteae senilis senile type degeneration of the macula (yellow spot) ophthalmoplegia externa progressivaprogressive external ophthalmoplegia; syndrome of diverse causes and is often accompanied by disorders of other tissues other than extraocular muscles
