* '''retinal pigment epithelium''' - (RPE, pigmented layer) An epethial pigmented cell layer lying outside the sensory retina, formed from the outer layer of the folded optic cup. The RPE is firmly attached to the underlying choroid and overlying retinal visual cells, for which it has a nutritional role. | * '''retinal pigment epithelium''' - (RPE, pigmented layer) An epethial pigmented cell layer lying outside the sensory retina, formed from the outer layer of the folded optic cup.

* '''retinal waves''' - A form of coordinated spontaneous activity that occurs in the developing retina. These waves of electrical activity (action potentials) along with EphA/ephrin-A signaling are thought to have a role in establishing the initial retinotopic map by correlating/coordinating the activity of neighbouring retinal ganglion cells. | * '''retinal waves''' - A form of coordinated spontaneous activity that occurs in the developing retina.
