Presentation Transcript

  1. Development of the eye: • At first , the optic vesicle evaginates from the lateral walls of the diencephalon and forms the two-layered optic cup. The inner layer develops into the pigmented epithelium and the outer layer forms the sensory portion of the retina. • The optic cup approaches the overlying ectoderm to induce formation of the lens vesicle. • The lens vesicle detaches inwardly from the surface and induces formation of the cornea from the ectoderm. • The iris and ciliary body differentiate from the optic cup.
