|October 1, 1981
Abstract:
The complexity of the medial canthal area is discussed and the importance of complete tumor removal with microscopically controlled excision emphasized.. Immediate reconstruction is recommended in most instances. Defects to be reconstructed are divided into nasal and eyelid sides of the medial canthal region and subdivided into superficial and deep defects. The reconstructive modalities used in the various defects are illustrated and the advantages and disadvantages of each explored.

01:20Muscles of the Eye
The muscles of the eye are sophisticated structures that control eye movement and focus, allowing for the precise and rapid adjustments necessary for vision. The human eye is controlled by ten muscles — six extraocular muscles, three intraocular muscles, and one primary eyelid retractor muscle.
Extraocular Muscles
The six extraocular muscles surround the eyeball and control its movements. They are responsible for a wide range of eye motions, including looking up, down, left, right, and rotating...

01:17Accessory Structures of the Eye
Optical perception, or vision, is an extraordinary sense dependent on converting light signals received via the ocular organs. These organs, known as eyes, are securely positioned within the bony cavities of the skull, called orbits. The orbits serve a dual purpose: a protective shield for the ocular globes and a stable attachment point for the soft ocular tissues. The eye's external protective mechanisms include the eyelids, which are edged with lashes that act as a barrier against foreign...
