Abstract

This review summarises both classical and current literature data on the structure and the histogenesis of the retina of the mammalian eye and, in particular, of its specialized region - area centralis. The review describes the modern concepts of
cytoarchitecture of area centralis, as well as the peculiarities of its blood supply, and presents the details of its histogenesis from early embryonic stages to postnatal development
