Author response image 2.

(Top panels) RI distribution in the rod OS assumed at a contrast of 6-8% and OS cylinder diameter assumed 1.6um and 25um long. (Bottom) Intensity distribution of a plane wave propagating longitudinally in the cylindrical outer segment structures indicating a guiding effect. Simulations performed using Biobeam (Weigert et al., 2018).
