eyes for dissection

[lada]

Where do you get your eyes for dissection? We are in Sydney and our current supplier cannot deliver anymore.

i get mine from glow meat at arndell park, but the butcher at pemulwy (greystanes) was also good at getting them.

I get ours now from Dissection Connection, I tell the teachers they need 1 week notice for dissecting stuff, so I have time to order it in. Our butcher was charging ~$5 each eye, got costly, DC are a little cheaper when I added freight, and she is very nice to deal with

[RosalieM]

Seriously??? You PAY for eyes?? Wow... We just get them from a local butcher. We get pig eyes. They cost nothing.

I ring up and order them from the abbatoirs. Cost nothing.

[Labbie]

In Sydney we pay for it all. No such thing as a free be??????????

[superbug]

We get ours from the local butcher as well for free. Or there is the abbatoirs where we got them for free as well.

Hi Lada,
I get mine from Illawarra Smallgoods, or Ziems Butchers. Next time you're down in the Gong.....
Cheers, Ellice

Anyone use dissection connection for eyes? Can you tell me about the quality? What are the lenses like when they are defrosted? Are they cloudy? Any other comments in general?

Thanks

We dissected some pigs' eyes last week from Dissection Connection. I didn't pay that much attention to be honest, but no complaints from the teacher.

Could you ask what they thought of the lenses?

[Lis]

We are waiting for an order to come in, when they do the dissection, I will let you know

[nickykinz]

We use them for eyes every year and the teachers always happy with them. Lenses always appear clear, but I have never used fresh so not sure if they are as clear. Definitely not cloudy though.

[rae]

Excellent!! Just thought I'd give them a go!!

Teacher said she was happy with them and would use them again.
