Özet
This study aimed to investigate the macroscopic, light microscopic (LM) and scanning electron microscopic (SEM) characteristics of the pecten oculi in common kestrels (Falco tinnunculus). A total of six eyeballs from three common kestrels were used as the study material. The examination revealed that the bulbus oculi was spherical in shape and its diameter exceeded the axial‐global length. In the equatorial section of the eyeball, the pecten oculi were observed to be situated on the retina layer where the optic nerve enters the eyeball, showing a posterior‐to‐anterior distribution. The pecten oculi appeared dark brown, with a convoluted structure, comprising approximately 15–17 vascular folds. Scanning electron microscopic examination revealed dense capillary vascular folds on the surface of the pecten oculi. Within these capillary vessels, a few hyalocytes were noted, and melanocytes were found at the edges …
