Rudiments of this gland are also found in solipedes. The tears are collected by the lachrymal points, which conduct them through the lachrymal duct and nasal canal to the nasal cavities. In certain rodents, the hares in particular, the lachrymal canals are replaced by fissures which establish communication between the conjunctival surface and the nasal fossae. In the study of the appreciation of the impression of a rav of light upon the retina and the formation of an image a comprehension of the laws of light is essential. The eye is furnished with certain mechanisms by which an image is formed somewhat in the same manner as in a camera obscura. Such mechanisms are what are termed the dioptric mechanisms of the eye. Rays of light striking the retina give rise to.
