Phacodonesis

	Phacodonesis Phacodonesis (; ) is the tremulousness or vibration of the lens with eye movement. This is often due to lens subluxation, the incomplete or partial dislocation of the lens, caused by an injury to the eye in which some or most of the zonular fibers are broken. See also Iridodonesis Iridodonesis () is the vibration or agitated motion of the iris with eye movement. This may be caused by lens subluxation, the incomplete or partial dislocation of the lens; or by aphakia, the absence of a lens. The term originated from irido- ( la, ...

	Iridodonesis Iridodonesis () is the vibration or agitated motion of the iris with eye movement. This may be caused by lens subluxation, the incomplete or partial dislocation of the lens; or by aphakia, the absence of a lens. The term originated from irido- ( la, iris) + doneo ( el, δονεο, to shake to and fro). See also Phacodonesis Phacodonesis (; ) is the tremulousness or vibration of the lens with eye movement.

picture info	Lens Subluxation Ectopia lentis is a displacement or malposition of the eye's crystalline lens from its normal location. A partial dislocation of a lens is termed lens subluxation or subluxated lens; a complete dislocation of a lens is termed lens luxation or luxated lens. Ectopia lentis in dogs and cats Although observed in humans and cats, ectopia lentis is most commonly seen in dogs. Ciliary zonules normally hold the lens in place. Abnormal development of these zonules can lead to primary ectopia lentis, usually a bilateral condition. Luxation can also be a secondary condition, caused by trauma, cataract formation (decrease in lens diameter may stretch and break the zonules), or glaucoma (enlargement of the globe stretches the zonules). Steroid administration weakens the zonules and can lead to luxation, as well. Lens luxation in cats can occur secondary to anterior uveitis (inflammation of the inside of the eye). Anterior lens luxation With anterior lens luxation, the lens pushes into the i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Zonular Fibers The zonule of Zinn () (Zinn's membrane, ciliary zonule) (after Johann Gottfried Zinn) is a ring of fibrous strands forming a zonule (little band) that connects the ciliary body with the crystalline lens of the eye. These fibers are sometimes collectively referred to as the suspensory ligaments of the lens, as they act like suspensory ligaments. Development The ciliary epithelial cells of the eye probably synthesize portions of the zonules. Anatomy The zonule of Zinn is split into two layers: a thin layer, which lines the hyaloid fossa, and a thicker layer, which is a collection of zonular fibers. Together, the fibers are known as the suspensory ligament of the lens. The zonules are about 1–2 μm in diameter. The zonules attach to the lens capsule 2 mm anterior and 1 mm posterior to the equator, and arise of the ciliary epithelium from the pars plana region as well as from the valleys between the ciliary processes in the pars plicata.
