  2. Optic disc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optic_disc

    The optic disc is located 3 to 4 mm to the nasal side of the fovea.It is a vertical oval, with average dimensions of 1.76mm horizontally by 1.92mm vertically. [2] There is a central depression, of variable size, called the optic cup.

  3. Optical disc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_disc

    An early analogue optical disc system existed in 1935, used on Welte's Lichttonorgel sampling organ. [15] An early analog optical disc used for video recording was invented by David Paul Gregg in 1958 [16] and patented in the US in 1961 and 1969. This form of optical disc was a very early form of the DVD (U.S. patent 3,430,966).

  5. Optic cup (anatomical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optic_cup_(anatomical)

    The cup-to-disc ratio compares the diameter of the cup portion of the optic disc with the total diameter of the optic disc. A good analogy to better understand the cup-to-disc ratio is the ratio of a donut hole to a donut. The hole represents the cup and the surrounding area the disc. If the cup fills 1/10 of the disc, the ratio will be 0.1.

    The cornea is typically about 11.5 mm (0.45 in) in diameter, and 0.5 mm (500 μm) in thickness near its centre. ... The light circle is the optic disc where the optic ...

  7. Macula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macula

    The macula in humans has a diameter of around 5.5 mm (0.22 in) and is subdivided into the umbo, foveola, foveal avascular zone, fovea, parafovea, and perifovea areas. [ 2 ] The anatomical macula at a size of 5.5 mm (0.22 in) is much larger than the clinical macula which, at a size of 1.5 mm (0.059 in), corresponds to the anatomical fovea.

  8. Optic nerve hypoplasia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optic_nerve_hypoplasia

    The mean disc diameter (DD) is (Vertical diameter of Disc+Horizontal diameter of Disc) divided by 2. The distance between the center of the disc and the macula is DM. Interpretation: When the ratio of DM to DD is greater than 3, ONH is suspected, and when it is greater than 4, Optic Nerve Hypoplasia is definite.

  9. Retina - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retina

    In adult humans, the entire retina is about 72% of a sphere about 22 mm in diameter. The entire retina contains about 7 million cones and 75 to 150 million rods. The optic disc, a part of the retina sometimes called "the blind spot" because it lacks photoreceptors, is located at the optic papilla, where the
