The Short Ciliary Arteries are small blood vessels that branch off from the ophthalmic artery, which is a branch of the internal carotid artery. They supply blood to the posterior part of the eye, particularly the choroid, which is essential for providing nutrients and oxygen to the retina. These arteries also play a role in the vascularization of the ciliary body and the iris. Each short ciliary artery typically enters the eye through the sclera and divides into several branches. These branches form a network that ensures adequate blood flow to the eye's internal structures. Proper functioning of the short ciliary arteries is crucial for maintaining eye health and supporting vision.
