Course objectives
At the end of the collection of lectures of this subject a student will be able to understand and to interpret knowledge of the eye anatomy, structure of the cell, histology of the eye tissues and parameters of the eyeball. The student correctly defines and interprets terms connected with tunica fibrosa, tunica vasculosa, tunica interna, inner space of the eyeball, visual pathway, brain visual centers, blood and nervous supply of the eye, helping and protecting organs of the eye. Integral part of this subject is knowledge of the eye embryology and inborn eye diseases.
Learning outcomes
At the end of the collection of lectures of this subject a student will be able to understand and to interpret knowledge of the eye anatomy, structure of the cell, histology of the eye tissues and parameters of the eye.
