Magnification and Resolution
Aging Tissue and Vision Loss
These are micrographs of a section of a human eye. Using computer algorithms and other technology the panel on the right has a higher resolution and is therefore clearer. It should be noted that both panels are at the same magnification, yet the panel on the right has a higher resolution and gives more information on the sample. The labels represent various parts of the human eye: Bruch membrane (B); choroid (C); retinal pigment epithelium (RPE); and retinal rod cells (R). The scale bar is 2um.
