ANATOMY & HISTOLOGY OF CONJUNCTIVA
1.
2.
3. IT is a translucent mucous membrane which lines the posterior surface of the
eyelids & anterior aspect of eyeball.
The normal conjunctiva is-
o pink
o Smooth
o Thin
o Transparent
There are normally large deep blood vesells that run vertically.
4. The conjunctiva helps lubricate the eye by producing mucus and tears, although a
smaller volume of tears than the lacrimal gland.
It also contributes to immune surveillance and helps to prevent the entrance of
microbes into the eye.
5.
6. It is richly vascular, extremely thin and strongly bounded to the tarsal plate.
It is subdivided into 3 parts-
A. Marginal
B. Tarsal
C. orbital
7. o Extends from the lid margin to about 2 mm back of the lid upto the sulcus
subtarsalis.
o Actually a transitional zone between skin & the conjunctiva proper.
o Lacrimal puncta open in the marginal zone.
8. o Thin , transparent & highly vascular
o Firmly adherent to the whole tarsal plate in the upper lid and only to half width of
the tarsus in the lower lid.
o The tarsal glands are seen through it as yellow streaks.
9. It lies loose between the tarsal plate & the fornix.
Orbital margin of the upper eyelid is loose and lies over the muller’s muscle.
10. o It is transparent and lies loose over the underlying structures and thus can be
moved easily.
o It is separated from the anterior sclera by episcleral tissue & tenon’s capsule.
o The average thickness is 33 microns
o It is also known as ocular conjunctiva
o It is further of two types.- limbal, sclera
11. A 3mm ridge of bulbar conjunctiva around the cornea is called limbal conjunctiva.
Strongly adherent to sclero-corneal junction
12. COVERS the eyeball above the anterior sclera & hence known as scleral
conjunctiva.
Thin, transparent & loosely attached to underlying sclera
Separated from the sclera by episcleral vessels and tenon’s capsule.
13. It is thin, transparent, continuous circular cui-de-sac
It is broken only on the medial side by caruncle and the plica semilunaris.
It joins the bulbar conjunctiva with the palpebral conjunctiva.
It is further of four types-
1. Superior
2. Lateral
3. Medial
4. inferior
18. The layers of epithelial cells in the conjunctiva vary from region to region and its
different parts are
oMARGINAL CONJUNCTIVA:-
have 5layers non-keratinised stratified squamous type of epithelium.
Superficial layer- squamous cells
Intermediate 3 layers- polyhedral cells.
Deepest layer- globlet cells.
19. oTARSAL CONJUNCTIVA-
Has 2 layers epithelium in the upper eyelid.
Superficial layer-cylindrical cells.
Deep layers- cubical cells
Lower tarsal conjunctiva is made of 3-4 layers of cells like the cubical, polygonal, elongated
wedge shaped and cone shaped cells.
oFORNIX & BULBAR CONJUCTIVA-
3 layered epithelium
Superficial layer-cylindrical cells
Middle layer- polyhedral cells
Deep layer- cuboidal cells
20. 8-10 LAYERS of stratified squamous epithelium
Most superficial 1-2 layers squamous cells.
Intermediate several layers-polygonal cells.
Basal layer- cylindrical or cubical cells.
21. a. Goblet cells
b. Melanocytes
c. Langerhans cells
d. Conjunctival associated lymphoid tissue.
e. Mucosal associated lymphoid tissue.
22. Also called as lymphoid layer
Consists of fine connective tissue reticulum in the meshes of which lie the
lymphocytes
Most developed in the fornices and ends at the subtarsal fold.
Develops after 2-3 months of life.
23. Consists of a meshwork of collagenous and elastic fibres.
Thicker than the adenoid layer
Except in the tarsal conjunctiva where it is very thin.
This layers consist vessels and nerves of the conjunctiva.
The adenoid layer & the fibrous layer are collectively called as substantia propia.
