ANATOMY

Page 7: Aqueous humor dynamics

Ciliary epitheliumNonpigmented - inner layer, adjacent to aqueous in

the posterior chamber,consisting of columnar cells (cuboidal in pars plana). Intercellular tight junctions (zonulae occludens)

form major element of blood-aqueous barrier.

Tips or crests of nonpigmented ciliary epithelia are site of active secretion,

hence numerous mitochondria, roughendoplasmic reticulum, pinocytic

by goniosciopic examinationStarting from posterior to anterior

TRABECULAR MESHWORK IT IS SIEVE LIKE STRUCTURE THROUGH WHICH

AQUEOUS HUMOUR LEAVES EYECONSIST OF 3 PORTIONS1)UVEAL MESHWORK-Innermost part of TM, extends from iris root and ciliary body

to schwalbes line-the arrangement of uveal trabecular bands create opening of

25 mu to 75 mu-least resistance to flow

Page 20: Aqueous humor dynamics

2)CORNEOSCLERAL MESHWORK-larger middle portion ,extends from scleral

spur to lateral wall of scleral sulcus-opening 5 mu to 50 muModerate resistance to flow

Page 21: Aqueous humor dynamics

3)JUXTACANLICULAR , ENDOTHELIAL MESHWORK

It form outer most part Lined on either side by endothelium IT MAINLY OFFERS NORMAL RESISTANCE

AQUEOUS DRAINAGE

Page 24: Aqueous humor dynamics

SCHLEMMS CANALIT IS ENDOTHELIAL LINED OVAL CHANNEL

PRESENT CIRCUMFERENTIALLY IN SCLERAL SULCUS

THE ENDOTHELIAL CELLS OF ITS INNER WALL ARE IRREGULAR, SPINDLE SHAPED AND CONTAIN GAINT VACUOLES

THE OUTER WALL OF THE CANAL IS LINED BY SMOOTH FLAT CELLS

CONTAINS OPENING OF COLLECTOR CHANNELS

Page 25: Aqueous humor dynamics

COLLECTOR CHANNELS

ALSO CALLED INTRASCLERAL AQUEOUS VESSELS

ABOUT 25-35 IN NUMBERLEAVES SCHLEMMS CANAL AT OBLIQUE

ANGLES TO TERMINATE INTO EPISCLERAL VEINS

NO VALVES ARE PRESENT IN COLLECTOR CHANNELS

THESE INTRASCLERAL AQUEOUS VESSELS CAN BE DIVIDED INTO TWO SYSTEM

Page 26: Aqueous humor dynamics
Page 27: Aqueous humor dynamics

DIRECT SYSTEM ON SLIT LAMP , THESE APPEAR AS CLEAR VESSELS

WITH AQUEOUS CALLED AS AQUEOUS VEINS BY ASCHER

AS THESE VESSELS TERMINATE INTO EPISCLERAL AND CONJUNCTIVAL VEINS IN LAMINATED JUNCTIONS ,CALLED AS LAMINATED VEIN OF GOLDMANN

Page 28: Aqueous humor dynamics

EPISCLERAL VEINS

MOST OF AQUEOUS VESSELS DRAIN INTO EPISCLERAL VEINS

Aqueous humor

is a relatively cell free,protein free fluid formed by non pigmented ciliary

epitheliumSlightly hypertonicAcidic , PH IS 7.2 Marked excess of ascorbateMarked deficit of proteinsSlight excess of chloride and lactic acid

Formation of aqueous humourCiliary processes are site of aqueous

productionThe various constituents of aqueous humour

have to pass 3 tissue layers of cililary processes

1)capillary wall2)stroma3)two layers of epithelium

Page 33: Aqueous humor dynamics

Formation processes involved1)diffusion 10 %2)Ultarafiltration 20%3)secretion 70%

Page 34: Aqueous humor dynamics

DIFFUSIONDiffusion - lipid-soluble substances are transported through the lipid portions of the cell membraneproportional to a concentration gradient across the

membrane

Page 35: Aqueous humor dynamics

ULTRAFILTRATIONUltrafiltration - water and water-soluble

substances,limited by size and charge, flow through

theoretical micropores in the cell membrane in response to

an osmotic gradient or hydrostatic pressure;

influenced byintraocular pressure, blood pressure in the ciliary capillaries, and plasma oncotic pressure

Page 36: Aqueous humor dynamics

Diffusion and ultrafiltration are both passive mechanisms, with lipid- and water-soluble

substances from the capillary core traversing the stroma

and passing between pigmented epithelial cells and limited by the tight junctions of the non-

pigmented epithelial cellsc. Active transport (secretion) - water-soluble

substances

Page 37: Aqueous humor dynamics

SECRETIONActive transport (secretion) - water-soluble substances of larger size or greater charge are actively transported across the cell membrane, requiring the expenditure of energy; Na-K ATPase and glycolytic enzymes are present in nonpigmented epithelial cells.Active transport is decreased by hypoxia, hypothermia, and any inhibitor of active metabolism. Active transport accounts for the majority of aqueousproduction.

FORMATION OF STROMAL POOL

Page 40: Aqueous humor dynamics

PASSIVE TRANSPORT ACROSS NON PIGMENTED CILIARY EPITHELIUM

Active transport across non pigmented epithelium result in osmotic and electical gradient

Sodium is primarily responsible for movement of water into posterior chamber and its secretion is major factor in formation of aqueous

Page 41: Aqueous humor dynamics

ACTIVE TRANSPORT OF STROMAL FILTRATES

The tight junction between non pigmented epithelial cells creat part of blood aqueous barrier

Substances actively transported are1)NA2)chloride3)potassium3)ascorbic acid4)amino acid n bicarbonate

avascular tissues of the eye.

Brings essential nutrients such as oxygen glucose and amino acids .

Removes harmful substances such as lactic acid and CO2

Page 45: Aqueous humor dynamics

Maintains the IOP and structural integrity of the eye.

Contains high concentrate of ascorbate which act to scavenge free radicles and protects against effects of radiation.
