Ciliary Body


  • Ciliary Body Development: The ciliary epithelium forms first (from the rim of the optic cup). Around the 4th month the muscles begin to form from mesenchyme cells outside the cilliary epithelium. Muscles develop from the outside in, meridonal -> radial -> circular. Attachments to the scleral spur at about 7 months.

    Two Functions: using blood for the production of aqueous humor / accommodation of lens
Divisions: Pars plicata and Pars plana
    a. Pars plicata - Includes ciliary processes and parts of muscle.
b. Pars plana - Smooth, lacking processes, and merges with retina at the ora serrata.
