Spatial distribution of macular birefringence associated with the Henle fibers. Vision Res. 2008 Jun 13; Authors: Elsner AE, Weber A, Cheney MC, Vannasdale DA The spatial distribution of macular birefringence was modeled to examine the contribution from the foveal Henle fiber layer, particularly cone axons. The model was tested in 20 normal subjects, age 17-55yr. Phase retardance due to Henle fibers was modeled for rings increasing in radius around the fovea, using a sinewave of two periods (2f). The 2f sinewave amplitude increased linearly with eccentricity for each individual, (p
