Retina is the neuronal layer in which images of the objects focus on and reach the visual center of the brain, occipital cortex, via neurons emanating from photoreceptor layer of retina. Retina is consisting of neurosensory retina and retina pigment epithelium( RPE). Having most important duties for the retina functions, RPE is settle on Bruch membran that lye above the choriocapillaris and has weak regenerative capability. Each retinal layer may present a different importance for the pathological situations like glaucoma and retinal diseases or electrophysiological tests. Important retinal anatomic structures have been aimed to be given briefly in this review article.
