With full realization of this fact, it was not our intention claim priority or rediscover centrifugal nerve fibers in human retinas. With all deference Dr. Wolter, we acknowledge that he was the first investigator document any morphologic evidence for the possible presence of efferent nerve fibers in human retinas.
