Zonule de Zinn

Zonule de Zinn

La zonule de Zinn (membrane Zinn, zonule ciliaire) est un anneau de torons fibreux reliant le corps ciliaire avec le cristallin de l'œil. La zonule de Zinn est divisé en deux couches: une mince couche qui tapisse la fosse hyaloïde, et une couche plus épaisse, qui est une collection de fibres zonulaires. Ensemble, les fibres sont connus comme le ligament suspenseur du cristallin [1].
