ANATOMY/MORPHOLOGY OF MELANOPSIN RETINAL GANGLION CELLS (MRGC) IN THE HUMAN RETINA: THEIR NUMBER AND CONNECTIONS TO THE …
Summary:
This paper discusses a symposium on melanopsin retinal ganglion cells (mRGCs), their role in non-visual light responses, and their implications in neuro-ophthalmologic disorders.
Categories
- Eye health: The paper discusses the structure and function of melanopsin retinal ganglion cells (mRGCs), a type of cell in the eye that plays a role in non-visual light responses.
- Education and learning: The paper describes a symposium where attendees learn about the properties of mRGCs, their role in mediating non-visual light responses, and their clinical implications in neuro-ophthalmologic disorders.
- Aging: The paper discusses the susceptibility of mRGCs to the effects of aging.
- Neurological Disorders: The paper discusses the clinical implications of mRGC pathophysiology in neuro-ophthalmologic disorders.
