Needs expansion. --Joelmills 01:38, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Photo is wrong?

The dog photo appears to show a lens opacity (cataract) rather than vitreous pathology (asteroid hyalosis).

The dog in the photo has both nuclear sclerosis and asteroid hyalosis. I know it's a lousy photo, but it's all I could get with my limited photographic abilities. If you think it's not a good representation of the condition, we can definitely remove it. --Joelmills 04:48, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
I put up what I hope is a better image. One of these days I'll get the focus right. --Joelmills 05:08, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
Third attempt is up. Any thoughts? -Joelmills 03:04, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Looks good to me! However, for those who don't understand what they're looking at, perhaps a diagram (showing the asteroids behind the lens, in the vitreous cavity) would be more instructive :) PedEye1 03:11, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

That's a good idea. I don't suppose there is a eye cross section diagram already in existence (and with a free license) with which we can work? -Joelmills 15:32, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
