Name: posterior segment eye
Synonyms:
Definition: Anatomical cluster comprising the caudal portion of the eye: the retina, posterior chamber, optic choroid, and vitreous.
Ontology: Anatomy Ontology [ZFA:0005567]
Name: proximal side
Synonyms: proximal

Ontology: Spatial Ontology [BSPO:0000061]
Name: lacks parts or has fewer parts of type
Synonyms: loss of
Definition: The bearer of this quality has_part < n of the indicated entity type, where n is the normal amount for a comparable organism. Note that the bearer of the quality is the whole, not the part. Formally: If a bearer entity e has fewer parts of type X at time t, then the number of instances x of X at t such that x part_of e is < n, where n is either the normal number for comparable entities, or n is stated explicitly. This case includes the limit case, where the bearer lacks all parts of the specified type.

Name: retinal pigmented epithelium
Synonyms: pigmented epithelium, pigmented retina, pigmented retinal epithelium, PRE, RPE
Definition: A monolayer of pigmented epithelium covering the neural retina; develops from the outer of the two layers of the optic cup.
