Abstract
The chick eye is widely used in the study of ocular growth and emmetropization. Here, high resolution retinal imaging was used to measure the angular tuning properties of individual photoreceptors in vivo. A small amount of disarray in the alignment of the chick photoreceptors was measured implying that the photoreceptors are aligned to optimize the light entering the eye through the central portion of the pupil.
