Retina

特許 権利維持 The vertebrate retina (/ˈrɛtɪnə/ ret-i-nə, pl. retinae, /ˈrɛtiniː/; from Latin rēte, meaning "net") is a light-sensitive layer of tissue, lining the inner surface of the eye. The optics of the eye create an image of the visual world on the retina (through the cornea and lens), which serves much the same function as the film in a camera. Light striking the retina initiates a cascade of chemical and electrical events that ultimately trigger nerve impulses. These are sent to various visual centres of the brain through the fibres of the optic nerve.
