This study of the zebrafish eye is a series of four images taken at increasing magnifications. This image, the first image is the SEM block face of the zebrafish eye. This is followed by a second im...

Confocal image of the developing eye of a chick embryo. The dark region in the centre is the where the surface layer has invaginated to form the lens vesicle. The tissue surrounding this space is stai...

Scanning electron micrograph of the Drosophila compound eye. Close-up shows the multi-faceted cornea (pink) and the thin, hair-like structures called setae (green) which are believed to reduce glare.

This photomicrograph shows the retina from the eye of a three-day-old zebrafish. The retina is viewed here from the front, as if the viewer is looking directly into the eye of the fish. This image is...

Projection a series of confocal images of the eye of a commmon blue damselfly. This projection shows the regular, crystal-like architecture of the eye of the Enallagma cyathigerum, an active visual pr...

Confocal micrograph showing the connections of the visual system in a four-day-old zebrafish embryo. Staining of the neurons, glia and optic nerve illustrate the connections between the retina and the...

Eye of a 24 hr zebrafish embryo stained for paxillin (green) and laminin (red). Images made available by Mark Cooper thru The Zebrafish A Living Laboratory.

Confocal micrograph of the head region of a transgenic zebrafish embryo. The large circular structure is the eye, showing the structure of the retina. Some neurons in the brain are highlighted in gre...

Single tilt image (zero degree tilt) of a mitochondrion from a retinal rod photoreceptor of a female mouse (C57BL/6) from a 0.3 um section. This image has been downsampled from the raw data image whic...

Confocal micrograph of a mast cell in human eye with conjunctivitis. This image shows a single mast cell invading conjunctival tissue in response to an inflammatory agent or pathogen. The mast cell c...
