- Camera anterioara
Anterior chamber
Between the cornea and the lens there are two rooms, the anterior chamber and the posterior chamber, separated by the iris. Both chambers are filled with aqueous humor, secreted by the ciliary body. Aqueous humor, made up mostly of water and salt, enters the posterior room first, and goes through the pupil to the anterior chamber, where is drained into the venous circulation of the eyeball. If the drainage is blocked, the pressure in both rooms may increase (see glaucoma).- Corneea
Corneea
Corneea este stratul frontal clar, reprezentând o şesime din stratul exterior al ochiului. Functia principala a corneei este de a concentra si de a transmite lumina pe retina.- Corpul ciliar
Corpul ciliar
Această structură are două funcţii. Lichidul apos care umple partea din faţă a ochiului este produs în interiorul corpului ciliar. De asemenea, corpul ciliar este format din muschi care permit ochiului să focalizeze la distanţe diferite.- Corpul vitros
Vitreous body
The vitreous body is a clear, jelly-like substance that fills the center of the eye. It is composed mainly of water and comprises about two thirds of the eye's volume. The vitreous body helps the eye maintain a round shape and is attached to the retina at various points, including the macula and the optic nerve.- Cristalinul
Cristalinul
Cristalinul este structura transparentă din interiorul ochiului situata direct în spatele irisului. Singura functie a cristalinului este de a concentra razele de lumina pe retina.- Irisul
Irisul
Irisul este partea colorata a ochiului. Este localizat în spatele corneei, şi în partea din faţă a cristalinului. Această structură separă camerele anterioară şi posterioară a ochiului. Funcţia irisului este de a ajuta reglarea cantitatii de lumină care intră în ochi.- Macula
Macula
The macula is located roughly in the center of the retina. It is a small and highly sensitive part of the retina responsible for detailed central vision. The fovea is the very center of the macula. The macula allows us to appreciate detail and perform tasks that require central vision such as reading or driving a car.- Membrana coroida
Choroid membrane
The choroid is a vascular and pigmented membrane located between sclera and retina. The choroid membrane is a fragile tissue layer whose blood vessels supply the outer surface of the retina with oxygen and nutrients. In front of the eyeball, the choroid membrane continues with the iris and the ciliary body.- Nervul optic
Nervul optic
Nervul optic este situat în partea din spate a ochiului. Această structură este raspunzatoare pentru transmiterea imaginilor pe care le vedem de la retina la creier. Suprafaţa frontală a nervului optic, care este vizibilă pe retină, se numeste disc optic. Există milioane de fibre nervoase care trec prin retină şi converg pentru a forma nervul optic. Cand lumina atinge retina, aceasta este transformata/convertita in impulsuri electrice şi transmisa de-a lungul acestor fibre prin nervul optic si apoi la creier.- Pleoapa inferioara
Lower eyelid
The role of the eyelids is to protect the eye from injuries, but also to adjust the amount of light entering the eye. Eyelids also contribute to tear distribution. When cornea becomes dry, it triggers the blinking reflex, and the upper eyelid spreads the tear fluid throughout the ocular surface. Eyelashes also contribute to eye protection. When eyelashes are touched, the blink reflex is triggered and the eyelids close.- Pleoapa superioara
Upper eyelid
The role of the eyelids is to protect the eye from injuries, but also to adjust the amount of light entering the eye. Eyelids also contribute to tear distribution. When cornea becomes dry, it triggers the blinking reflex, and the upper eyelid spreads the tear fluid throughout the ocular surface. Eyelashes also contribute to eye protection. When eyelashes are touched, the blink reflex is triggered and the eyelids close.- Retina
Retina
The retina is the nerve layer that lines the back of your eye. The retina's function is to sense light and create impulses that are sent through the optic nerve and to the brain.- Sclera
Sclera
Sclera is the final coating that covers the eye. It consists of a shiny white conjunctive tissue and serves to protect and support the eyeball, ensuring its stability and shape. The frontal side of sclera is what we call "white eye". To the front side of the eyeball, the sclera continues with the cornea.- Pupila
Pupila
Pupila este un orificiu intunecat din centrul irisului. Funcţia pupilei este de a regla cantitatea de lumina care intra in ochi. Marimea pupilei variaza automat pentru reglarea cantitatii de lumina care intra in ochi.
