Cornea: Cornea: It is transparent ,avascular and highly innervated anterior portion of the fibrous. It is composed of 5 distinct layers: It is composed of 5 distinct layers: 1. Corneal Epithelium A.NON- keratinized stratified squamous tissue. B. Contains numerous free nerve endings. 2. Bowman s membrane A. It is homogenous non-cellular layer. B. Contains type 1 collagen fiber. 3. Stroma * Thickest layer (about 90%) Composed of Parallel Lamella of DENSE C.T. 4. Descemet s membrane A. Thick Basement membrane. B. Formed by : Corneal endothelium (the layer under it). 5. Corneal endothelium Simple squamous epithelium.
Stratified squamous Epithelium Bowman's membrane Corneal endothelium Corneal stroma Corneal fibroblasts Descemet's Membrane
SCLERA SCLERA IT covers the Posterior 5/6 of the fibrous tunic. Consists of bundles of Type 1 collagen (dense irregular C.T.). Melanocytes are located in the deeper regions.
CHOROID CILIARY BODY 1. IT is the vascular pigmented Posterior portion of the middle vascular tunic. 1. It is the anterior continuation of the choroid, it surrounds the lens. 2.Structure: IT composed mainly of Loose C.T. with Melanocytes. 2.Structure: IT formed of Loose vascular and pigment C.T.
1) Anterior border layer Incomplete layer of: fibroblasts melanocytes. IRIS IRIS It is formed of 5 5 layers layers Poorly vascularized C.T with: fibroblasts melanocytes. 2) Stroma 3) Vessel layer Well-vascularized loose C.T. Centrally, it contains circularly arranged smooth muscle fibers (sphincter pupillae muscle). 4) Dilator pupillae muscle layer Contains radially arranged myoepithelial cells. 5) Posterior surface layer It is composed of two rows of pigmented epithelial cells.
