What Can Ophthalmoscopy Reveal About Retinal Histology?
Through ophthalmoscopy, clinicians can observe features such as the fovea, where the concentration of photoreceptor cells is the highest, providing sharp central vision. Additionally, the fundus of the eye reveals the underlying blood vessels and the optic disc, where the optic nerve exits the eye. Histologically, these observations can indicate the health and integrity of the retinal layers.
