Students in Mrs. Kern’s Anatomy classes had an eye-opening experience yesterday!
They participated in a hands-on lab that allowed them to explore the complexities of vision, from the cornea to the optic nerve, through the dissection of sheep eyes. It’s one thing to read about how we see the world; it’s another thing to hold the lens in your hand!
