How it begins
El ojo deriva del neuroectodermo (retina, epitelio pigmentario retiniano, cuerpo ciliar, iris), el ectodermo superficial (cristalino, córnea epitelial, conjuntiva, glándula lagrimal) y el mesodermo + células de la cresta neural (estroma corneal, trabeculum, músculos extraoculares, esclera, coroides, cuerpo vitreo).
