We spend about one-tenth of our waking hours completely blind. Only one percent of what we see is in focus at any one time. We exist in a world we see that's always about half a second behind the real one. In fact you don't need eyes to see - blind volunteers have been taught to see through their chests. Wasps can't see, but map their surroundings instead. If we are stared at, our heartbeat rises and our galvanic skin response alters. How many generations did it take for the first fish to acquire eyes? Answer is 400,000. Why do humans have whites to their eyes when other species don't? Could it be that thinking arose as an evolutionary response to seeing? Without eyes, would minds exist at all? Be prepared to have your eyes opened! Using a spellbinding mix of scientific research, mathematics, philosophy, history, neuroscience, anecdote and language theory, in The Eye, Simon Ings unravels brilliantly the never-ending puzzle of how and why we see in the way that we do. From looking at the work of a huge range of theorists and scientists, to myths and personal experiences, and with the help of a beguiling mix of illustrated visual conundrums and enigmas, Ings triumphs with a compelling dissection of the age-old mysteries of the eye that's both seriously interesting and interestingly fun. He tells the eye's whole story for the very first time, fusing eye and sight into a single story - this is popular science of the highest order.

The eye is one of the most remarkable achievements of evolution, and has evolved up to 40 times in different parts of the animal kingdom. In humans, vision is the most important sense, and much of the brain is given over to the processing of visual information. In this Very Short Introduction, Michael Land describes the evolution of vision and the variety of eyes found in both humans and animals. He explores the evolution of colour vision in primates and the workings of the human eye, to consider how that contributes to our visual ability. He explains how we see in three dimensions and the basic principles of visual perception, including our impressive capacity for pattern recognition and the ability of vision to guide action. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

February, 1901: Jan Cichy, a Polish inventor, sets out from Snowshill, England on a latitudinal circumnavigation of the globe. A few weeks later, disheveled and on the brink of insanity, he returns to London, but quickly departs for the European continent. Months pass, and Prof. Micha? Nowak, Cichy's friend, receives a package from Oman. Inside the parcel are several bone fragments, a small bag of sand, and an exhaustive manuscript outlining what had happened to Cichy during his voyage. Jan Cichy is never seen or heard from again. His text sits unread at the Jagiellonian University Library in Poland, but disappears during the horrific turmoil of World War II. Decades later, the manuscript resurfaces at a secret home of a high-ranking Nazi officer. Along with hundreds of texts, works of art, and national treasures, Jan Cichy's manuscript returns to Poland from Germany. This is the first and only English translation of Jan Cichy's chilling, The Eye of Eyes.

Of the five senses, vision, without a doubt, is one of the most important. We have only two eyes and they must last a lifetime. And it is because this gift of sight is so precious, that fear of blindness is a universal concern. If it is based on ignorance or misconception, this apprehension is unnecessary. The purpose of this little volume is to fulfill the need for a simple, straightforward, uncomplicated book concerning your eyes. It is the author's hope that this book will help to increase the reader's understanding of the structure, function, and diseases of the eye. The entire text has been expanded upon and updated and a new chapter included by Doctor Mary Cuaycong on Refractive Vision Correction. The author covers general eye anatomy and physiology, light and vision, the conjuctiva, the cornea, cataracts, glaucoma, the uveal tract, the retina, neuro-ophthalmology, strabismus, eye changes associated with general diseases and eye injuries. The book concludes with a glossary and a helpful section of answers to often-asked questions. It will be of interest to eye patients, ophthalmology paraprofessionals and assistants and other interested individuals. Fear resulting from a real eye disease is realistic. It is easier to cope with these fears and with the problem itself if it is understood. Fortunately, in ophthalmology, the understanding of the difficulty can frequently lead to the solution of the problem. Continuing vision can be preserved, and frequently vision lost can be restored. Ongoing dynamic new advances are continuing in the battle against blindness. Understanding is a large part of the battle. That's what this book is all about.

Clinical Anatomy of the Eye has proved to be a very popular textbook for ophthalmologists and optometrists in training all over the world. The objective of the book is to provide the reader with the basic knowledge of anatomy necessary to practice ophthalmology. It is recognised that this medical speciality requires a detailed knowledge of the eyeball and the surrounding structures. The specialist's knowledge should include not only gross anatomic features and their development, but also the microscopic anatomy of the eyeball and the ocular appendages. The nerve and blood supply to the orbit, the autonomic innervation of the orbital structures, the visual pathway, and associated visual reflexes should receive great emphasis. The practical application of anatomic facts to ophthalmology has been emphasised throughout this book in the form of Clinical Notes in each chapter. Clinical problems requiring anatomic knowledge for their solution are presented at the end of each chapter. Illustrations are kept simple and overview drawings of the distribution of the cranial and autonomic nerves have been included.
