(From Gaupp, after G. Retzius.) .^ within the choroid lies the retina which is continued ante- riorly over the posterior surface of the iris as far as the pupil. It is composed of two principal layers, an outer thin layer of pigmented cells, and an inner much thicker layer which forms the sensitive portion of the retina. Over the ciliary body and posterior side of the iris the retina is much thinner than it is elsewhere and does not contain nervous Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Holmes, Samuel J.
