All of the Following are Accessory Structures of the Eye

Question

All of the following are accessory structures of the eye EXCEPT:
A) palpebrae
B) lacrimal apparatus
C) intrinsic muscles
D) eyelashes

Accepted Answer

Intrinsic muscles are not considered accessory structures of the eye; they are located within the eye itself and are responsible for controlling the eye's movements and the shape of the lens. Accessory structures, such as the palpebrae (eyelids), lacrimal apparatus (tear production and drainage system), and eyelashes, serve protective roles and support the function of the eye but are not involved in vision directly.
