Cartilage and cornea

No blood supply but do require oxygen for respiratory

Cartilage is usually described as a vascular, as the blood vessels innervate only the outer fibrous sheath of cartilage, called perichondrium. The cornea is the transparent anterior portion of the outer coat of the vertebrate eye covering the iris and the pupil. It is avascular as it lacks lymphatic and blood vessels.
