[Gutenberg 62544] • Technique of Eye Dissections

Excerpt from Technique of Eye Dissections

The aim of this booklet is to present to the eye-specialist, the teacher, the student, and others interested in the study of the anatomy and physiology of the eye, some definite meth ods to follow in the dissection of that organ.

Most dissections of the eye are not made with the same 'degree of care and skill used in the dissections of other organs. In follow ing the usual method of dissecting eyes, much of the important detail is lost. Often certain membranes are confounded with others, and wrongly demonstrated. Furthermore, an eye is merely divided by some demonstrators into an anterior and a. Posterior half, a very short time is spent by the students scrutinizing each half; then the text-book is turned to, and the anatomy is studied descriptively.
