OBJECTIVES
• Identify the macro-structures of the eye
– Diagrams
– Models
– Dissecting cow’s eye
• Identify the microscopic structures of the retina
• Identify the macro-structures of the ear
• Identify the microscopic structures of the cochlea
Objective 1: Structures of the Human Eye

Internal Eye
Three concentric tunics (layers) of the eye:
• Outer fibrous tunic
• Middle vascular tunic
• Inner sensory tunic

Macula lutea
Fovea centralis
Optic disk
(blind spot)
Optic nerve
The OPTIC DISC is the region were:
• the optic nerve exits the eye
•The central artery and vein of the retina enter and exit the eye
•There are no photoreceptors, the “blind spot”

Ophthalmoscope View
Fovea centralis & Macula lutea
The macula lutea is an oval region lateral to the optic disc,
at it’s center lies the fovea centralis, the area of
greatest cone density in the retina.
Segments of the Eye
Vitreous
humor
Anterior segment: area in
front of the lens, filled with
aqueous humor
Posterior segment: area
behind the lens, filled with
vitreous humor
Anterior Segment
Anterior chamber: between the cornea and iris
Posterior chamber: between iris and lens

and the cow eye
• Identify the macro-structures of the ear from models
• Identify the microscopic structures of the retina and
cochlea
