Presentation transcript:

BOVINE EYE DISSECTION INTRO

Can humans or non-human animals see in the dark?

NO……You need light!

Light?  Waves of electromagnetic energy  Photons: = discrete particles of energy  Travel in space at high speeds (186,000/second!)  Measure in length nanometers (billionth of a meter) So, we call these wavelenths Visable to humans  380 – 760 nm

Visible Spectrum of Wavelength - Humans *snakes see infrared (too long for humans)

Anatomy of the Eye 4. Iris: muscle, control of light intake, color (melanin) 5. Pupil: hole in iris -- dilates/contract based on available light 10. Optic Nerve 6. Lens: adjusts the eye’s focus (20%) accomodation 2. Cornea: covers iris & pupil focusing begins (80%) 3. Anterior Chamber (aqueous): clear fluid  nutrients/shape 7. Vitreous Humor: gives eyeball shape 1. Sclera: covering of eye retina: transduction rods & cones 9. Fovea: acuity, cones 11. choroid 11.

Anatomy of the Eye Light entering the eye

Normal Vision Problem in lens  Cataracts protein clumping together Problem in the macula (fovea) Macular Degeneration: loss of acuity and center vision

Lens of the eye inverts the visual image – Upper half of visual field projects onto the ventral portion of the retina … Lower half of visual field projects to the dorsal portion of the retina Thank God (or whomever) that the visual cortex inverts it back to its original orientation! The visual system is like a Camera

Anatomy of the Eye - Retina Retina: Photoreceptors Transduction of light Into electrical chemical Message Instead of NT Binding to receptor… Light cause cascade of Intercellular messages

…notice anything funky about the set up? Ganglion Cell Axons form optic nerve Cell Layers in the Retina

Duplexity Theory Rods (scotopic) -responsible for night vision -very sensitive to light (low levels) -found in the periphery of retina - more than cones - Provide monochromatic info (Achromatic) - Provides poor acuity - Night blindness Cones (photopic): -responsible for day vision (sensitive to mod-hi light) - found in fovea - provides greater acuity - trichromatic – color vision - legally blind (day blindness)

Anatomy of the Eye – Blind Spot blind spot

The blind Spot 1 million nerve fibers

Optic Tract 1/2 axons go to right side of the brain 1/2 go to left side of brain Not the same in all animals – depending on location of eyes Ex: Rabbits & Guinea Pigs IPSI & CONTRALATERAL PATHWAYS

How does the signal get to the Visual Cortex? VIA the Retinal Ganglion Cell Axons OPTIC TRACT

Glaucoma: problem in the Anterior Chamber  fluid there doesn’t drain correctly which puts pressure on the back of the eye especially the optic nerve Damage to the optic nerve = Glaucoma
