Figure 5: In primates the maculo-papilar bundle is not invaded by the main branches of the central retinal vessels during vasculogenesis. Widening of the angle formed by the temporal branches of the retinal vessels, so as to allow the passing of the maculo-papilar bundle, results from the high development of central vision in hominids. CRV: Central retinal vessels; F: Fovea. |
