The optic vesicles project toward the sides of the head, and the peripheral part of each expands to form a hollow bulb, while the proximal part remains narrow and constitutes the optic stalk. [1] [2] Closure of the choroidal fissure in the optic stalk occurs during the seventh week of development. The former optic stalk is then called the optic ...
These diverticula make their appearance before the closure of the anterior end of the neural tube; [1] [2] after the closure of the tube around the 4th week of development, they are known as the optic vesicles. Previous studies of optic vesicles suggest that the surrounding extraocular tissues – the surface ectoderm and extraocular mesenchyme ...
Only the epidermis in the head is competent to respond to the signal from the optic vesicles. Both the optic vesicle and the head epidermis are required for eye development. The competence of the head epidermis to respond to the optic vesicle signals comes from the expression of Pax6 in the epidermis. Pax6 is necessary and sufficient for eye ...
Sclerocornea is a rare disorder, with no clear gender bias. In one study, 14 patients were diagnosed with a congenital corneal opacity over a 40-year study period, yielding a birth prevalence of 1 in 5188 live births. The mean age at diagnosis was 7.5 months (range 0–48 months) and 9 (64.3%) were males.
Invagination is the process of folding in cells. The lens placode invaginates to later develop the lens or lens pit. The development of the lens placode is typically seen between 44 and 50 hours; invagination occurs shortly after at around the 50–55-hour mark.
From January 2008 to December 2012, if you bought shares in companies when J. Michael Cook joined the board, and sold them when he left, you would have a 104.1 percent return on your investment, compared to a -2.8 percent return from the S&P 500.

Optic pits are associated with other abnormalities of the optic nerve including large optic nerve size, large inferior colobomas of the optic disc, and colobomas of the retina. The optic disc originates from the optic cup when the optic vesicle invaginates and forms an embryonic fissure (or groove). Optic pits may develop due to failure of the ...
