Data showing the shapes of cones and Müller cells within the fovea of monkeys reconstructed from serial sections and focused ion beam analysis

The data presented in this article are related to the research paper entitled “The anatomy of the foveola reinvestigated” (Tschulakow et al., 2018) [1]. Here we show the original aligned serial sections through the foveal centre of monkeys at different planes of section and 3 D models of central foveal cells.
