Examine the lens, noting the degree of convexity of its anterior and posterior surfaces. Hold it over print. Place it under water. Can it be readily seen now? Explain. Open the posterior chamber widely, noting the differences in the color of the fundus. Explain. Identify the optic papilla and obtain an idea re- garding the location of the yellow spot. Note the characteristics of the vitreous humor. Examine histologic preparations of the cornea, iris, lens, and retina. 183.
