The Embryology, Anatomy And Histology Of The Eye

The book ""The Embryology, Anatomy And Histology Of The Eye: The Physiology Of Vision"" was written by Earl J. Brown and was first published in 1906. This book provides a comprehensive and detailed account of the embryology, anatomy, and histology of the eye, as well as the physiology of vision. The author begins by discussing the development of the eye from its earliest stages, including the formation of the optic vesicle and the differentiation of the various structures that make up the eye. He then goes on to describe the anatomy of the eye, including the structure and function of the cornea, lens, retina, and optic nerve. The book also covers the histology of the eye, which involves the study of the microscopic structure of the eye's tissues and cells. The author provides detailed descriptions of the various cell types found in the eye, including the photoreceptor cells responsible for detecting light and transmitting visual information to the brain. Finally, the book explores the physiology of vision, which involves the complex processes by which the eye and brain work together to create our perception of the world. The author discusses the role of the retina in processing visual information, as well as the mechanisms of color perception, visual acuity, and depth perception. Overall, ""The Embryology, Anatomy And Histology Of The Eye: The Physiology Of Vision"" is a detailed and informative resource for anyone interested in the science of vision and the workings of the eye. It provides a thorough understanding of the anatomy and function of this complex organ, and is a valuable reference for students and professionals in the fields of ophthalmology, optometry, and vision science.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
