Anatomy of the Eye- A study guide for residents.

Basic Science Study List for first year ophthalmology residents.
This list serves to guide you in the reading of ocular anatomy. This is a work in progress. The format is designed to take advantage of the proven study technique known as SQ5R. You can attempt to recite the answers and then click on the link to read to find the right answer. Use it as a self test and for board preparation. Some answers are linked to information that has been published. This list is under continuous revision and should improve in time.
