  1. Chapter 22 Eyes and Ears

  2. Figure 22.1 Anatomy of the eye.

  3. Anatomy of the Eye • Cornea—clear or transparent outer “window” of the eye • Sclera—opaque, white portion around the circumference of the cornea • Conjunctiva—thin, transparent layer that extends from the edge of the cornea to cover the sclera; also lines the inside of the eyelids

  4. Anatomy of the Eye (cont.) • Iris—colored disc visible through the cornea • Pupil—opening in the iris • Lens (crystalline lens)—located directly behind the iris

  5. Anatomy of the Eye (cont.) • Retina—sensory tissue that lines the back of the eye • Optic nerve—visual pathway by which electrical impulses move from the retina to the brain and back • Macula—small, yellowish area in the retina that provides the most central and acute vision

  6. Anatomy of the Eye (cont.) • Vitreous humor—occupies about 80 percent of the interior of the eye; composed mostly of water • Choroid—layer of nourishing blood vessels between the sclera and the retina • Extraocular muscles—regulate the motion of each eye

  7. Figure 22.8 Anatomy of the ear.

  8. Anatomy of the Ear • The outer ear structures are the visible portion of the ear • The middle ear structures include: • Tympanic membrane (eardrum) • Auditory canal • Malleus, incus, and stapes • Eustachian tube

  9. Anatomy of the Ear (cont.) • The inner ear structures include: • Cochlea, snail-shaped organ that contains the nerves required for hearing • Vestibular labyrinth, which contains the sense organs required for balance

  10. Function of the Eye • The function of the eye is sight • In humans, stereoscopic vision creates depth perception

  11. Figure 22.2 The eye as a camera.

  12. Functions of the Ears • The ears have two separate functions: to hear and to govern balance • These functions are not interdependent • One may be deaf and have perfect balance • One may have perfect hearing and have a disrupted sense of balance

  13. Common Diseases of the Eyes • Stye (hordeolum)—localized infection of the sebaceous gland in a hair follicle at the base of an eyelash • Blepharitis—inflammation of the eyelid margins, accompanied by redness, thickening, and possibly the formation of scales and crusts or shallow marginal ulcers

  14. Common Diseases of the Eyes (cont.) • Conjunctivitis—acute or chronic inflammation of the conjunctiva caused by a virus, bacteria, allergy, or irritant such as wind, smoke, or snow • Vascular retinopathy—noninflammatory disease in which the retina has become damaged

  30. Diseases of the Ears • Otitis media—an inflammation and infection of the middle ear • Hearing loss—technically not a disease; there are many types of hearing loss • Earwax buildup—also not a disease; this condition can lead to temporary hearing loss, loss of homeostasis, and irritation of the ear
