fovea

In the retina of an animal's eye, there is a small pit called the fovea that refracts the light entering the eye.

It was one of the arteries supplying blood to the fovea, the part of the retina providing the clearest vision.

That’s because cones are packed most tightly in the very center of your retina, in a small area called the ‘fovea.’

Those piercing eyes are much like yours, equipped with 3-D vision and a fovea — a centralized concentration of light receptors — the better to focus and track.

The damage occurs in the fovea, a spot in the retina that is responsible for sharp, central vision.
