The fourth installment of our Dr. Livingston’s Anatomy Jigsaw Puzzle line features larger-than-life puzzles built to showcase the Human Heart, Brain, Eye, Hands, and Feet. These unique puzzles were created to dynamically capture parts of human life at work. The puzzle pieces are designed to outline and highlight the stunning art, created by a Certified Medical Illustrator.
In this volume, you’ll assemble an accurate cross-cut section of the eye that gives you a detailed interior view from the lateral rectus muscle to the cornea.
Focusing on our windows to the world, this puzzle illuminates the many specialized parts that empower us to see. Look through the lens that, along with the cornea, allows light into the eye and focuses its rays onto the retina, a nerve layer that contains photosensitive cells. Observe the iris and pupil that act like a camera’s diaphragm and aperture to adjust to our surroundings and control the amount of light we take in. Marvel at the macula that gives detailed clarity to our sight. Find the optical nerve, the sum of more than a million fibers that transmit impulses from the retina to the visual cortex. Track the extraocular muscles that rotate our eyes and expand our field of vision. When finished assembling these exquisite pieces, you will be in awe of your accomplishment and your body’s complexity.
