Eyelid, 5
Orbicularis Oculi Muscle - skeletal muscle that is used to close the eyelid.
Tarsal Plate with Meibomian Glands - the tarsal plate is composed of dense
connective tissue. The Meibomian glands (sebaceous type glands) are embedded in it.

Duct of Meibomian Glands - the duct sectioned in this slide would drain the glandular
elements in this field. Additional glands and ducts are found along the length of the
tarsal plate. The secretion of these glands serves to lubricate the movement of the lid
and also help move the tears toward the lacrimal puncta.

Fibrous Layer:
Sclera - white of the eye made up primarily of collagen.
Cornea - composed of several layers supported by a substantia propria predominantly
composed of a special transparent collagen.
Vascular Layer (Uvea):
Choroid - vascular tissue with pigment.
Ciliary Body - has ciliary processes and ciliary muscles.
Cornea
Iris - has dilator and sphincter pupillae muscles, a vascular stroma and pigment layers.
This section is cut to the side of the pupil so that the iris appears as a continuous
structure.

Ora Serrata
Ora Serrata - transition form the light sensisive to non light sensitive part of the neural
coat that continues as inner layers of the ciliary body and the iris. In this section the
retina is detached and the continuation of the neural coat beyond the ora serrata is
detached also.
Eye, 183
Iris
Cornea
Canal of
Schlemm
Ciliary
Processes
Ciliary
Muscle
Ciliary Processes - folds extending from the ciliary body.
Ciliary Muscle - smooth muscle that functions to decrease tension on the suspensory fibers of the lens. This decrease in tension
allows the lens to become more rounded for close focusing.
Canal of Schlemm - this is a canal into which the aqueous humor drains from the anterior chamber of the anterior cavity.
Eye, 183
Ciliary
Processes
Ciliary
Muscle
Ciliary Processes - the neural coat continues over the ciliary body and processes as a
nonpigmented and pigmented layer. These epithelial layers assist in the formation of the
aqueous humor that is found in the anterior cavity of the eye.
Eye, 183
Remnants of
the Lens
Iris
Iris - there is no pupil in this section. See the "Low" image for the description of the
layers.
Remnants of the Lens - most of the lens fibers have been lost from this section.
Eye, 183
Pigment Layer - represents the
continuation of the neural coat to the
back of the iris. It is actually two
layers of epithelium. The
nonpigmented layer that is present
over the choroid body becomes
pigmented as it continues onto the
iris.
Pigment Layer
Stroma of Iris
Dilator of
Pupil
Stroma of Iris - vascular connective
tissue with some pigmented cells
associated with it.
Dilator of Pupil - is modified
smooth muscle that is closely
associated with the pigment layer
and therefore somewhat difficult to
identify.
Eye, 183
Epithelium
Endothelium
There are five layers to the cornea, three of which are labeled on this image.
Substantia
Epithelium - stratified epithelium on the outer surface
of thePropria
cornea. It is exposed to
tears and air.
Substantia Propria - avascular dense fibrous tissue. It is predominantly composed of
transparent collagen.
Endothelium - single layer of cells that lines the inside of the cornea. It is bathed in
aqueous humor.
Eye, 183
Stratified Squamous
Epithelium
Bowman’s Membrane
Bowman's Membrane - extremely thick
basement membrane that underlies the
stratified squamous epithelium on the
surface of the cornea.
Substantia Propria

Endothelium
Substantia Propria
Descemet’s Membrane
Descemet's Membrane - basement
membrane underlying the endothelium.

Pigment Spot
Sphincter of the Iris
Pigment Spot - almost all individual have these darker spots
on their iris. They show up especially well in light colored eyes.
Pupil
Sphincter of the iris - this muscle surrounds the pupil and allows for constriction of the pupillary opening.
Eye, 183 (Demonstration)
Pigment Cells
in Stroma
Pigment Layer
Pigment Layer - this layer, on the back of the iris, is actually composedPigment
of two Spot
layers of
cells and is present in all individuals except albinos. If there is little pigment in the
stroma (anterior to the pigment layer), as is the case in this eye, the result is a light eyed
individual. A dark eyed person has large amount of pigment in the stroma.
Spincter of the Iris
Pigment Spot - almost all individual have these darker spots on their iris. They show up
especially well in light colored eyes.
Sphincter of the iris - this muscle surrounds the pupil and allows for constriction of the
pupillary opening.
Eye - Fetal, 182
Conjunctival Sac
Eyelid
Cornea
This slide shows the extent of the conjunctival sac and the immature layers of the eye.
The retina and the choroid are both detached.
Conjunctival Sac - The posterior side of the eyelid is lined by the palpebral conjunctiva.
The anterior portion of the eyeball up to the cornea is lined by the bulbar conjunctiva.
The point where the two conjunctival layers meet is called the fornix.
