Functional knowledge of ocular physiology in animal species provides a critical foundation for clinicians practicing comparative and veterinary ophthalmology. This chapter presents the physiology of the eye, especially regarding the adnexa, anterior segment, ocular circulation, aqueous humor (AH) dynamics, lens, and vitreous; optics; and vision.

The rate at which both relatively simple and complex ocular physiological mechanisms are being studied is incredible. This chapter presents the essential physiological phenomena of the eye, optics, and vision required by the clinical veterinary ophthalmologist.
