Human eye, infrared image C013 / 7321

MODEL RELEASED. Human eye, close-up infrared image. This is the right-hand eye of a 24-year-old man. Infrared lighting can be used to visualize subcutaneous structures (those below the surface of the skin) that are not visible in normal lighting. These structures include superficial veins. Other applications of infrared imaging include recording the ocular surface temperature (OST), and tracking eye movements

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Human eye, infrared image" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the hidden world beneath our skin. Captured in stunning detail is the right-hand eye of a 24-year-old man, illuminated by infrared lighting to reveal subcutaneous structures that remain invisible under normal lighting conditions. The intricate network of superficial veins becomes strikingly visible, showcasing the complexity and beauty of our biological makeup. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this infrared imaging technique holds immense potential in various medical applications. By recording the ocular surface temperature (OST), it enables precise monitoring and diagnosis of ocular health. Additionally, tracking eye movements becomes possible through this innovative technology. The monochrome composition adds an air of mystery to this scientific marvel as we are drawn into the depths of the subject's iris and eyelashes. This image serves as a reminder that there is always more than meets the eye when it comes to understanding human anatomy. Photographed by Larry Dunstan for Science Photo Library, this print not only showcases his technical expertise but also highlights how artistry can intersect with science seamlessly. It invites us to appreciate both the aesthetics and significance behind such groundbreaking research while reminding us of the wonders that lie within each one of us.
