Cyclitis.- Inflammation of the ciliary body:

-A.B.Norton Cyclitis.- Inflammation of the ciliary body is very rarely found uncomplicated with other diseases and usually, except when caused by wounds, is an extension of a choroiditis, or iritis, and when the inflammation commences in the ciliary body it usually extends to these parts, and in fact the iris is always more or less involved. The recognition of cyclitis is essential on account of the danger to vision it threatens. The distinction between cyclitis and iritis is not an easy one, and it is necessary, therefore, to search carefully for the characteristic signs, which are the extreme sensitiveness to touch, cloudiness of the vitreous and the change in the tension, which is first increased and later decreased. Cyclitis may occur as either a plastic, serous or purulent inflammation. Cyclitis Plastica.- PATHOLOGY.- The pathological changes are the same as those found in plastic inflammation of the iris, wandering cells and an exudation of an amorphous mass, especially on the in...

Diseases of the Eyelids:

-E.B.Norton Anatomy.- The eyelids form the external covering of the eyeballs and serve to protect the eye from injury both from excessive light and foreign substances; they also serve at the same time to distribute to the eyes the moisture secreted by the various glands. The eyelids or palpebrae, are two thin movable folds, the upper being the larger and more movable of the two; their movement is both voluntary and involuntary, the latter action being due to the orbicularis muscle. The opening of the lids is chiefly by the action of the levator palpebrae superiors lifting the upper lid; when opened an elliptical space is left between the margins of the lids; this opening varies greatly, being larger in prominent eyes than in sunken ones and greater when looking upward. The angles of junction of the upper and lower lids are called canthi the outer canthus is more acute than the inner; near the extremity of the inner canthus is found on both the upper and lower lids a slight elevation, t...
