Pertaining to within the eye is the term?

• A. Intraocular
• B. Extraocular
• C. Lacrimal Apparatus
• D. Conjunctiva

Answer: (A)

The term for within the eye uses the prefix intra- meaning inside, and ocular meaning relating to the eye. So intraocular describes structures or conditions located inside the eyeball itself. The other terms refer to different locations or tissues: extraocular means outside the eyeball, the lacrimal apparatus involves the tear glands and ducts, and the conjunctiva is the mucous membrane on the outer surface of the eye and inside the eyelids. Therefore, the best answer is intraocular.
