Ραγοειδής χιτώνας: Διαφορά μεταξύ των αναθεωρήσεων

In general the uvea consists of a pigmented, highly vascular loose fibrous tissue. The pigment is produced and held in numerous dendritic [[melanocytes]], similar to normal dermal melanocytes. The blood vessels show patterns which are specific to the region of the uvea, and are described in more detail under [[Iris (anatomy)|iris]], [[ciliary body]], [[pars plana]] and [[choroid]]. The stroma also contains large nerves, which are branches of the [[posterior ciliary nerves]]. They enter the eye around the [[optic nerve]], and run forwards in the uvea to reach their termination in the cilary body or iris. PartsThese parts of the uvea also contain smooth muscle - see [[ciliary body]], [[Iris (anatomy)|iris]].
