Control Brightness
• Only focused light pass through pin hole and accepted by the
detector.
• By using scanning mechanism to scan throughout the whole
sample– slow in speed.
• Could be used in combination with fluorescent microscopy.
• Can be used in transmission and reflection mode.
• Can reach up to a few hundreds micrometer below human skin
Basic eye anatomy
• Sclera : The shell that makes the
“eye ball”
• Cornea: The transparent part of
Sclera that provides 2/3 focusing
power.
• Retina: Includes Rod and Cone as
night time and day time
photoreceptors.
• Fovea : The area where most Cone
concentrates.
• Lens: The shape of lens is changed
by ciliary muscle to focus, providing
resting 1/3 power.
• Iris: Controls the pupil diameter.
• Blind spot: Where there is neither
Rod nor Cone photoreceptors.
