Provide the basis on the physiology and pathophysiology of aqueous humor production and outflow in glaucoma. Provide the basis on the development and characteristics of the lens, on the pathophysiology of accommodation and cataracts
Knowledge of the production and excretion of the aqueous humor and of the anatomy and physiology of the crystalline lens.
Production of aqueous humor: physiology - The ciliary bodies - The intra-ocular circulation of the aqueous humor - Pathways of flow: the trabecular pathway and the scleral-venous pathway - Changes in hydrodynamics during glaucoma - Embryology of the lens - Review of anatomical organization of the lens and the suspensory apparatus - The accommodative power of the cilio-lenticular system - Changes in accommodation: presbyopia - Modifications of accommodation: spasm and accommodative paralysis - Notes on the physiopathology of cataracts
