At this point, therefore, the retina will consist only of nerve-tubules. At one spot in the centre of the retina no nerve- fibres are to be distinguished, and on account of its color this point is termed the macula lutea, or yellow spot, and is the point of most acute vision. The layers of the retina have been described as follows : First, and 55.
