Review & Description
The heart of this program is an animated journey through the eye--you fly into the cornea, around the lens, through the vitreous, and deep into the layers of the retina.
Interactive QuickTime VR panoramas allow users to explore each part of the eye as if they were inside.
Detailed movies illustrate the function of the various eye components and the complexity of the retina.
Sounds of muffled heartbeats, aqueous fluids, and neural activity effectively transport you into the eye.
The 6 Modules:
? Anatomy: 8 interactive diagrams of the eye and brain with definitions.
? Physiology: An animated 3-D tour of the eye examines major and minor ocular structures, tissues, and their relationships. A detailed examination of phototransduction, neurotransmitters and synapses in the retina.
? Eye Conditions: 23 common eye conditions and diseases are described and illustrated. Basic vision tests are included.
? Eye Development: a timeline from embryonic stages to adulthood.
? Physics: properties of light, lenses, refraction, color theory and perception.
? Optical Illusions & Perception: more than 25 interactive exercises demonstrate how the visual system works by showing how it can be fooled. All the main classes of illusions are presented, with scientific explanations of the perceived effects.
