Understanding A Snail's Eye at a Snail's Pace [PDF]
This paper is cast in the form of answers to pertinent (sometimes impertinent) questions which a reader might ask of persons devoting the better part of a scientific career to studying the eye of a snail. Two structures in the eye of Helix aspersa are emphasized: the microvilli and microvesicles of type I photosensory cells.
