Calretinin immunolabeling was present in cell bodies and processes of amacrine cells at the inner nuclear layer (INL)-inner plexiform layer (IPL) border. Calretinin labeling was also present in cell bodies and processes (arrows) in the ganglion cell layer (GCL). Calretinin labeling is also found in three distinct bands in the IPL and retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons in the nerve fiber layer (NFL; arrowhead). Calbindin-28 kDa immunolabeling was present in cell bodies and processes of horizontal cells at the outer plexiform layer (OPL)-INL border. Calbindin-28 kDa also labeled amacrine cells at the INL-IPL border. Some descending processes were seen for some of these neurons (arrow). There are also diffuse calbindin-28 kDa-positive punctate in the IPL. Calbindin-28 kDa labeling is seen in few cells in the GCL as well as in the RGC axons in the NFL (arrowhead).
