The episclera is the outermost layer of the sclera (the white of the eye). [1] It is composed of loose, fibrous, elastic tissue and attaches to Tenon's capsule. [1]A vascular plexus is found between the bulbar conjunctiva and the sclera consisting of two layers of vessels, the superficial episcleral vessels and the deep episcleral vessels.
The diffuse type of episcleritis may be less painful than the nodular type. Sometimes, small nodules are present within the episclera, which move slightly over the sclera with gentle pressure. [5] Discharge is absent with episcleritis, and vision is unaffected. [5] Patients with episcleritis experience far less photophobia than patients with ...
In dermatology, a mole map is a medical record which records an image and the location of lesions and/or moles, or dark spots on the human body.Such a record is useful for diagnosis of cancer a priori or as a baseline which can be compared against later images to determine when there has been a visual change which may indicate cancer.
The globe of the eye, or bulbus oculi, is the frontmost sensory organ of the human ocular system, going from the cornea at the front, to the anterior part of the optic nerve at the back.
The sclera's blood vessels are mainly on the surface. Along with the vessels of the conjunctiva (which is a thin layer covering the sclera), those in the episclera render the inflamed eye bright red. [6] In many vertebrates, the sclera is reinforced with plates of cartilage or bone, together forming a circular structure called the sclerotic ring.

Eimer's organs are organs for the sense of touch, shaped like bulbous papillae, formed from modified epidermis.First isolated by Theodor Eimer from the European mole in 1871, these organs are present in many moles, and are particularly dense on the star-nosed mole, which bears 25,000 of them on its unique tentacled snout.
