Retinal layers. Confocal image of a vertical section through a postmortem human donor retina (age 36 years) taken at 500 µm eccentricity. The layers of the retina are visible with Nomarski differential contrast optics and DAPI nuclear stain (white) reveals the nuclei of cell bodies located in the outer nuclear layer (ONL), the inner nuclear layer (INL) and the ganglion cell layer (GC). IPL, inner plexiform layer; OPL, outer plexiform layer; HFL, Henle fiber layer; OLM, outer limiting membrane; IS, inner segments of photoreceptors. Scale bar: 50 µm.
