O Glorious Cow Eye


Disky

I dissected a cow eye today. And the teachers were crazy enough to let us keep the lens of the eye, because they said it becomes like a marble after a little while.

So now I have a cow eye lens on my desk in a plastic bag thingie, and my brother (who is older than me, for goodness sakes) is disgusted/frightened (not sure which one) by it.

But yeah, cow eyes have this neat thing called a tapetum (which cats also have, I think), which when you peel away the retina, it's a pretty blue-green color. I would love to have a dress in that color even if I don't wear dresses often.

Reminds me of third grade, when the teacher dissected a ram's eye in front of the entire class and explained everything. :P
