چکیده

The purpose of this case report was to present a rare case of optic disk tubercle. The optic disk edema resolved on antituberculous therapy with recovery of vision. We concluded that visual loss from an optic disk tubercle can be the presenting sign of tuberculosis.

Receptive field properties and intensity-response functions of polarization-sensitive neurons of the optic tubercle in gregarious and solitarious locusts.

Many migrating insects rely on the plane of sky polarization as a cue to detect spatial directions. Desert locusts (Schistocerca gregaria), like other insects, perceive polarized light through specialized photoreceptors in a dorsal eye region. Desert locusts occur in two phases: a gregarious swarming phase, which migrates during the day, and a solitarious nocturnal phase. Neurons in a small bra...

Pre-papillary cyst developed from remnants of the hyaloid artery.

THE duct of Cloquet is a tubular area which traverses the eyeball in its anterior-posterior axis from the optic disk to the posterior pole of the lens. It develops at the expense of the central or original vitreous, which is progressively absorbed from the third month of intra-uterine life, during the formation of the definitive vitreous. In the human fqetus the duct of Cloquet exists from the ...

The Physiology and Morphology of Visual Commissures in the Honeybee Brain

Visual commissures of the honeybee brain were investigated by electrophysiological and histological methods. 1. A newly described serpentine optic commissure (SOC) consists of four neurones each of which has widely extending arborizations in both medullae and lobulae. The cells are monocularly sensitive, the best stimulus being a moving target. 2. Neurones of the posterior optic commissure (POC...

Neural organization and visual processing in the anterior optic tubercle of the honeybee brain.

The honeybee Apis mellifera represents a valuable model for studying the neural segregation and integration of visual information. Vision in honeybees has been extensively studied at the behavioral level and, to a lesser degree, at the physiological level using intracellular electrophysiological recordings of single neurons. However, our knowledge of visual processing in honeybees is still limi...

Chromatic processing in the anterior optic tubercle of the honey bee brain.

Color vision in honey bees (Apis mellifera) has been extensively studied at the behavioral level and, to a lesser degree, at the physiological level by means of electrophysiological intracellular recordings of single neurons. Few visual neurons have been so far characterized in the lateral protocerebrum of bees. Therefore, the possible implication of this region in chromatic processing remains ...
