L. of life, sulcus pollicis. L. of regard'. /'. ligne de regard ; O. Blick- linie. The line connecting the centre of rotation of the eye with the point of re- gard ; for most purposes it may be taken as agreeing with the line of sight. The line connecting the fixation-point with a somewhat variable point between the eyes is called the binocular line of regard {G. binoculare Blickliuie). The primary posi- tion of the line of regard {F. position )>ri- maire de la ligne de regard ; G. Primarstel- lung, Xormalstellung) is — 1. That position for normal eyes which the lines of regard assume when the head is erect and the linos of regard are directed parallel to the median plane to an infinitely distant horizon {G. Fern.stellung). 2. That position fron\ which the eye may move up and down and right and left without undergoing any torsion ; for many eyes a somewhat depressed posi- tion. The primary position for convergence [Bonders] is that position of the plane of regard in which the rotation of the eves about the lines of regard in convergence becomes zero; usually a depressed position. The secondary position (/''. position .seeon- daire ; G. Secnndarstellung) is a position reached by rotation about a horizontal or vertical a.xis, or any position other than the primary. Third positions are those involv- ing rotation about the antoro-posterior a.xis, besides rotation about the horizontal and vertical axes. All these terms are applied to the eye as well as the line of regard. L. of sight. F. ligne visuelle. axe visuel; G. Gosicbtslinie, Schaxe, Gesiclitsaxe. Vis- ual axis, visual line, visual ray.

the retina to the fixation-point. It does not agree in position with the geometric axis of the eye. The binocular line of sight, median line of sight, or middle vis- ual line (6r. gemeinsame .Sehrichtungslinie, Sehriehtung der Xetzhautcentra, Haupt- sehrjchtung, mittlere Blickrichtung) is the line in which appear tho.se things which image themselves on the points of direct sight of the two rctin.c ; practically, the binocular line of regard. The range of movement of the line of sight {G. Bewe- gungsraum der Gesichtslinie) is an irregu- lar conical space enclosed by the line of sight in all the extreme positions that it can assume by movement of the eve alone. The apex of the cone lies at the centre of rotation of the eye. The field of move- ment of the line of sight (G. Bewcgungs- feld der Gesichtslinie) is a .section of the above-mentioned irregular cone by a plane (or by a curved surface whose centre of curvature is the centre of rotation of the eye) perpendicular to the line of sight in its primary position.

Lines of deniarca'tion. O. Tren- nungslinien. Imaginary lines U]iou tlie retina used to fix the position of corre- sponding )ioints.

The central hori- zontal line of demarcation (F. horizon reti- nien ; (1.

verticalo Trennungslinien") are — 1. Lines cut on the retina by planes passed tlirough a vertical axis perpendicular to the line of sight at the crossing-point of lines of direc- tion, when the eyes are in their primary position. 2. Lines cut on the retina by planes passed through a line lying in the plane of the apparent vertical meridian, and also perpendicular to the line of sight at the crossing-point of lines of direction (or of visir-lines). The central vertical line of demarcation (6^. 3Iittlerer Liings- schnitt. verticale Trennungslinie) is the line of demarcation cut as above (1) by a plane parallel to the median plane going through the centre of clearest vision.
Lines of direc'tion. F. lignes de di- rection ; (j. l{ichtungslinicn, ilichtungs- strahlen, Lichtrichtungen [Ilering].

Sehrich- tungslinien, Sehrichtungen) are lines upon which are seen objects lying on correspond- ing visir-lines (or corresponding lines of di- rection). They are approximately the lines of direction of the cyclopean eye. The crossing-point of lines of direction (F. point de croisement des lignes de direction ; G. Kreuzungspunkt dor Kichtuiigsstrahlen, or K. der Richtungslinien, Lichtrichtungs- knoten [ilering]. inittlerer Kiiotenpunkt) is a single jtnint assumed tietween the two real ncidal points through which the lines of direction are drawn, placed by Listing 0.4704 mm. before the posterior surface of the lens.
Lines of projec'tion. O. I'rojections- linien. Those lilies along which the retinal image is projected, according to the theory of projection. By some they are made to agree with the lines of direction ; by others with the visir-lines; by others, again, with lines drawn from the stimulated point through the centre of curvature of the retina.

(lobus semilu- naris inferior); a niedio-inferior 1.. slender 1.. and digastric 1., and an antero-inferior 1., amygdala. The vermiform process is known as the median 1., or its various divisions may be considered as attached to the ])artieular lobes to which they are respectivelv con- tiguous. The nomenclature difl'ers slightly with different authors, some grouping the antero- and medio-superior lobes as an an- terior 1. (lobus quadrangnlaris), and the postero-superior ami inferior lobes as a pos- terior 1.

Prolonge<l from the latter toward the right lobe is a process called the caudate 1.. which name is also applied to the whole Spigelian 1. L. of lung. L. lobi jnilmonales.

The two lateral lobes make the principal mass, sepa- rated by a considerable notch ; tlie median or inferior lobe is a small triangular promi- nence placed between them on the postero- inferior surface.
