The Sensory root of ciliary ganglia is a part of the human eye's nervous system. It is a branch of the ophthalmic nerve and connects to the short ciliary nerves.
Structure[edit | edit source]
The sensory root of the ciliary ganglia originates from the ophthalmic nerve, which is itself a branch of the trigeminal nerve. It carries sensory information from the eye to the brain.
Function[edit | edit source]
The sensory root of the ciliary ganglia is responsible for transmitting sensory information from the eye to the brain. This information includes light intensity, color, and other visual data.
Clinical significance[edit | edit source]
Damage to the sensory root of the ciliary ganglia can result in a variety of vision problems, including blurred vision, double vision, and loss of vision.
