Abstract:
The author observed the normal retinal vascular patterns, in human, rat, cat, dog and bovine, on flat preparations of the retina that all non-vascular components were digested with trypsin and stained with PAS and hematoxyline. Results obtained as follows: 1. Width of capillary free zone was broader in larger species than a smaller ones and also broader in the area about larger arterioles than in that about smaller ones in the same species. 2. Arteriolar annuli were observed at the side arm branches of retinal arteries in the rat, cat, dog and bovine. 3. There were different patterns of intercapillary bridges such as simple fibrous band and or a pattern simuJates like atrophied capillary.
