The sensory roots of ciliary ganglia are a component of the human eye's nervous system. They are involved in transmitting sensory information from the eye to the brain.

Structure

The sensory roots of the ciliary ganglia originate from the nasociliary nerve, a branch of the ophthalmic nerve. They carry sensory information from the cornea and iris to the brain.

Function

The sensory roots of the ciliary ganglia play a crucial role in the visual system. They transmit sensory information from the eye to the brain, allowing for the perception of visual stimuli.

Clinical significance

Damage to the sensory roots of the ciliary ganglia can result in a variety of visual impairments, including blurred vision, double vision, and loss of vision.
