Advanced Anatomy covers the information provided in this course but goes into more detail. Because there is a lot of information provided in Advanced Anatomy, if you do not have any background in the anatomy of the eye we recommend starting with the Basic Anatomy course and then taking the Advanced course later on. This will allow you to absorb the basic material first and then continue on to the more detailed information (while still reviewing the basics) provided in the Advanced Anatomy course.
