A surgical "'cyclodialysis "'is a rarely used procedure that aims to separate the ciliary body from the sclera to form a communication between the suprachoroidal space and the anterior chamber.
42.
On the other side of the lens is the second humour, the aqueous humour, which is bounded on all sides by the lens, the ciliary body, suspensory ligaments and by the retina.
43.
The lens of the eye is a curious case, as it receives sustenance from the aqueous humor from the ciliary body; thus drugs must go by this indirect route; nonetheless they can arrive.
44.
He studied under Heinrich Wilhelm Waldeyer ( 1836-1921 ) at the University of Berlin, obtaining his medical doctorate in 1892 with a thesis on the ciliary body and iris of the reptilian eye.
45.
What happens, Hendricks says, is that the eyeball's ciliary body muscles lose their ability to thicken the lens to provide sharp sight for close-up viewing . ( The lens is stretched thinner when viewing something far away.
46.
Cyclophotocoagulation, also known as transscleral cyclophotocoagulation, ciliary body ablation, and cyclophototherapy, "'Cyclodiathermy "'uses heat generated from a high frequency alternating electric current passed through the tissue, while "'cycloelectrolysis "'uses the chemical action caused by a direct current.
47.
:Hmmm, come to think of it . . . it is not commonly, but nonetheless repeatedly has been observed that a choristoma of the lacrimal gland can occur in the ciliary body and / or connected iris tissue.
48.
The lens is suspended to the ciliary body by the suspensory ligament ( Zonule of Zinn ), made up of hundreds of fine transparent fibers which transmit muscular forces to change the shape of the lens for accommodation ( focusing ).
49.
In addition some uveal regions have special functions of great importance, including secretion of the aqueous humour by the ciliary processes, control of accommodation ( focus ) by the ciliary body, and optimisation of retinal illumination by the iris's control over the pupil.

Never mind, the page explains it, and I didn't see it until re-reading . " It is produced by cells in the non-pigmented portion of the ciliary body deriven from embryonic mesenchyme cells which then degenerate after birth . " But could you help me understand what this means?
