Although this R3 was a bit gross, I found it interesting and it made it easier for me to understand different parts of the eye. I think the main purpose of this R3 was to use hands on experience to make it easier for us to label parts of the eye on a diagram. One of the first observations I made when I saw the eye was how much bigger a cow’s eye is than a human’s. After I saw how big the cornea looked, I was surprised with how much meat surrounded the eye that I would have to cut off. Then I had to decide where and how I was going to cut off the excess. The easiest part of this dissection was finding the lens. The lens is a very distinct feeling and looking part of the eye, so I knew I found the lens. The most difficult for me was finding

    An inspection of the modern animal phyla will reveal that eyes are just as diverse as they are complex. Some organisms like the rag worm have pigmented cup eyes while other like he box jellyfish have two lens eyes and two pairs of pigment pit eyes. To account for the diversity in eye structure, we must first examine the eye ‘prototype’, the original structure that was acted upon by evolution. The simplest organ that can be considered an eye is composed of a single photoreceptor cell and a single pigment cell, without any lens or other refractive body (Arendt, 2003). Such organs are know as eyespots, and...

    Retinal detachment is a separation of the retina from the choroid usual. The retina is a thin layer of tissue that lines the back of the orbital socket near the optic nerve. The normal functions of the retina are to process light through a layer of photoreceptor cells. These cells are light-sensitive and detect color and light intensity. The information gathered from these cells send information to the brain through the optic nerve to create a visual image (Davis 1797).
