Some Anatomical Aspects in Veterinary Ophthalmology
Downloads
In veterinary ophthalmology, there are a number of issues that require clarification of the morphology of the eyeball muscles.
Such diseases as exophthalmos, enophthalmos, strabismus, proptosis are closely related to the structure of the eyeball muscles and their topography.
Using the well-known macro-micro preparation method of V.P. Vorobyov on the material of 5-5 dog and cat carcasses, both from the right and left sides (20 preparations in total), we studied the specific structure of some muscles of the eyeball and eyelid of dogs and cats and their location in the eye socket. The parameters of the muscles (length, width, thickness); Their origin and attachment sites were identified.
