Our eyes allow us to perceive light, dark, and color in astonishing detail, revealing the beauty and complexity of the world around us. Perhaps even more extraordinary is the fact that this organ of vision measures just 24mm (0.95 inches) and weighs 7.5 grams (0.25 ounces)!
The eye's many complex structures, some more obvious than others, are mostly unknown outside of the medical field. In an attempt to eliminate any mysteries, our encyclopedia offers easy to understand definitions of most of the terms you're likely to hear in your ophthalmologist's office, and cross-references them with other relevant terms when appropriate.
Take a look!
