Ligament of Cartilage of the Upper and Lower Eyelid (L. Tarsi Superioris Et Inferioris)

The cartilage ligament of the upper (l. superioris) and lower (l. inferioris) eyelids is the connective tissue that connects the inner part of the upper eyelid with the outer part of the lower eyelid. It plays an important role in maintaining the shape and function of the eyelids and also protects the eyes from damage.

The upper eyelid cartilage ligament consists of two parts: the medial part and the lateral part. The medial part is attached to the cartilage of the upper eyelid, and the lateral part is attached to the inner corner of the eye. The upper eyelid ligament provides support and stability to the upper eyelid, preventing it from drooping and allowing the eye to open and close.

Tying the lower eyelid occurs in a similar way. The lateral part of the lower eyelid ligament is attached to the outer corner of the eye, and the medial part is attached to the lower part of the lower eyelid. This ligament also plays an important role in ensuring the mobility of the eye and maintaining its normal functioning.

In addition, the cartilage ligament of the upper and lower eyelids is involved in the blinking process. When you blink, the ligaments contract and relax, allowing the eyelids to move and close the eye.

Thus, the cartilage ligament of the upper and lower eyelids is an important anatomical structure that plays an important role in many functions of the eye, including blinking, maintaining the shape and form of the eyelids, and protecting the eyes from injury.



The upper and lower eyelid cartilage ligament (L. tarsi superioris et inferioris) is an important anatomical structure that connects the lower edge of the upper eyelid with the lower edge of the lower eyelid. It plays an important role in maintaining the normal position of the eyelids and ensuring clear vision.

The upper eyelid cartilage ligament (L. tarsi superiors) consists of several small elastic fibers that are attached to the lower part of the upper eyelid. It maintains the normal position of the upper eyelid and ensures its mobility.

The ligamentous apparatus of the lower part of the eyelid (L. tarsi Inferioris) also consists of elastic fibers. It attaches to the bottom of the lower eyelid and maintains the correct position of the lower eyelid.

The importance of the cartilage ligament of the Upper and Lower Eyelids is that it provides stability and flexibility to the eyelids and prevents their dislocation and dislocation. In addition, it participates in the formation of the lacrimal canal, which ensures the outflow of tear fluid from the eye.

Dysfunction of the cartilage ligament of the Upper and Lower eyelids can lead to various ophthalmological diseases, such as ptosis (drooping of the upper eyelid), ectropion (inversion of the lower eyelid), entropion (entropion of the lower eyelid) and others. Therefore, it is important to monitor the condition of this ligament and, if necessary, consult an ophthalmologist.
