    Abstract

    The eyeball can be divided into the anterior and posterior compartment bordering on the lens. The ocular wallis composed of three layers, namely the sclera, choroid and retina. Different pathologic conditions can occur,depending on the anatomic location. This paper illustrates the anatomical features of normal eyeball, as seen onMRI, and a variety of pathologic conditions of the compartments. An understanding of the MR features of variousintraocular lesions is thus facilitated
