Science 8 Eyeballs!

Some of the science 8 students had the opportunity to reinforce what they have learned about the physiology of an eyeball during a dissection. The dissection went very well and only one student had a little "eye juice" squirt on him. For the record this fluid is called the aqueous humour and is mostly water. As part of the curriculum the students need to learn the parts of the eye and be able to compare the eye to a camera, as well as other eyes in the animal kingdom.
