Nutrition is becoming an explosive area of research. The author, Professor Emeritus, has studied this important subject and its relation to the eye for over 40 years. Ocular tissue consists of neural cells, epithelial and endothelial cells, muscle cells, connective tissues, secretory gland cells, skin, mucous cells, etc. Thus studies of the nutritional aspect of ocular tissues may provide clues to the significance of the nutrients common to all organs. Since morphological studies of nutrients are scarce, this volume may contribute to the understanding of nutrients in all organs. This book covers the conjunctiva, cornea, retina, optic nerve, and sometimes rectus muscles related to nutrition and will serve as a key reference in the field.
