Sensory retina

This image shows the interface of the outer sensory retina with the pigment epithelium.  The pigment epithelium consists of cuboidal cells with basal nuclei and unique elongated melanin granules in their apical cytoplasm.  The epithelium rests on its basement membrane, which forms a portion of Bruch’s membrane.  The choriocapillaris is a layer of capillaries that supplies the outer portions of the retina.  1000x
