The posterior segment of a sheep eye refers to the region located at the back of the eye, which includes structures such as the retina, vitreous body, and optic nerve. This area is crucial for processing visual information, as the retina contains photoreceptor cells that convert light into neural signals. The vitreous body helps maintain the eye's shape and supports the retina. Understanding the posterior segment is essential for studying vision and eye health in sheep.

What are the coats of the sheep eye?
Sheep have the same coats to their eyes as humans do. Light passes through the conjunctiva and cornea, crosses the anterior cavity to reach the lens, goes through the lens, crosses the posterior chamber, and then gets to the neural tissue of the retina before reaching and stimulating the photoreceptors.
What is the fluid in the posterior cavity of the eye?
vitreous humorA clear gel called vitreous humor (vitre = glassy) that binds tremendous amounts of water. It's functions are to:transmit lightsupport the posterior surface of the lenshold the neural retina firmly against the pigmented layercontribute to intraocular pressure to counteract the extrinsic eye muscles(taken right out of my A&P textbook)** Added by m5fanatic **Glad you could copy your text book, but the question asks about the posterior CAVITY of the eye, not the eyeball itself. Posterior to the eye is mucous membranes, the ocular muscles, etc.Aqueous HumorThe Vitreous humor in the posterior cavity behind the lens.Liquid Humerus
Where is vitreous body located?
The posterior cavity of the eye.
Which portion of the eye contains vitreous humor?
The vitreous humor is a gel-like substance that fills the posterior portion of the eye, between the lens and the retina.
Where does the retina attach to the posterior aspect of the cow eye?

What eye cavity contains the aqueous humor?
The vitreous humor is in the posterior cavity of the eye.
What are the chambers in the eye?
There is an anterior chamber and a posterior chamber to the eye. The anterior chamber is from the lens and iris forward to the back of the cornea. The posterior chamber is from the back of the lens to the retina. The anterior chamber is filled with aqueous. The posterior chamber is filled with vitreous.
What does this mean Exudate of posterior pole of the eye?
