Anatomy of the anterior part of the human eye. "Suspensory ligaments" are labeled at left. "Suspensory ligaments" are labeled at left. The upper half of a sagittal section through the front of the eyeball .
The suspensory ligament of eyeball (or Lockwood's ligament) forms a hammock stretching below the eyeball between the medial and lateral check ligaments and enclosing the inferior rectus and inferior oblique muscles of the eye.
In the anatomy of the eye, the ciliary processes are formed by the inward folding of the various layers of the choroid, viz. the choroid proper and the lamina basalis, and are received between corresponding foldings of the suspensory ligament of the lens.
The lens is located towards the front part of the vertebrate eye, called the anterior segment, which includes the cornea and iris positioned in front of the lens. The lens is held in place by the suspensory ligaments (Zonule of Zinn), [1] attaching the lens at its equator to the rest of the eye [2] [3] through the ciliary body.

The accessory visual structures (or adnexa of eye, ocular adnexa, etc.) are the protecting and supporting structures of the eye, including the eyebrow, eyelids, and lacrimal apparatus. The eyebrows, eyelids, eyelashes , lacrimal gland and drainage apparatus all play a crucial role with regards to globe protection, lubrication, and minimizing ...
In 1992, Ronald Schachar proposed a model for land based vertebrates that was not well received. [7] The theory allows mathematical modeling to more accurately reflect the way the lens focuses while also taking into account the complexities in the suspensory ligaments and the presence of radial as well as circular muscles in the ciliary body.
The anterior segment or anterior cavity [1] is the front third of the eye that includes the structures in front of the vitreous humour: the cornea, iris, ciliary body, and lens. [2] [3] Within the anterior segment are two fluid-filled spaces: the anterior chamber between the posterior surface of the cornea (i.e. the corneal endothelium) and the ...
