Weiger's ligament is?
Attachment of vitreous to posterior surface of lens
Attachment of vitreous to the retina
Attachment of vitreous to orr serrata
Attachment of vitreous to optic disc
ANSWER: (A) Attachment of viterous to posterior surface of lensREF: Handbook of Pediatric Eye And Systemic Disease by Kenneth W. Wrigh page 30Some named structures around vitreous:Weiger's ligament (capsulohyaloid ligament or egger's line) : attachment of vitreous to posterior surface of lensBerger's space: centre of hyalocapsoid ligament or weiger's ligamentCloquet's canal: During the tenth week of development in humans (time varies depending on species), the lens grows independent of a blood supply and the hyaloid artery usually regresses. Its proximal portion remains as the central artery of the retina. Regression of the hyaloid artery leaves a clear central zone through the vitreous humor, called the hyaloid canal or Cloquet's canalArea of martergiani: posterior area of cloquet's canal which is seen as weiss ring.Mittendorf's dot: An anterior remnant of the hyaloid artery can be seen in some people as Mittendorf s dot, a small pinpoint-like scar on the posterior surface of the lens.Bergmeister's papilla: A posterior remnant may be seen where the artery left the optic disc, and is known as Bergmeister's papilla
