Structure of the Retina & Morphology of Photoreceptors
Description
The left panel shows the retinal layers, highlighting ganglion, amacrine, bipolar, horizontal, Müller glial cells, rods, and cones. Light passes through these layers to reach the photoreceptors. Müller glial cells span the retina, providing support, maintaining the blood-retinal barrier, and aiding photoreceptor regeneration. The right panel details rods and cones, emphasizing their structural differences and functions in vision.
