Rugged and robust, it works to protect the inner, more sensitive parts of the eye like the retina and choroid. Sclera The visual cells located in it are packed tightest, resulting in optimal sharpness of vision, perfect for reading or watching TV. Fovea It refers to the light sensitive tissue in the back of the eyeball. It absorbs light that ultimately is sent as visual signals to the brain. Retina It is essentially just a hole in the iris. The reason why it's black is because the layer of pigment inside the eye absorbs major parts of the light, thus resulting in a darker shade. Pupil It is the transparent structure located in the front of the eye, covering the iris and the pupil. Cornea It is a mucous membrane that covers the sclera and the inside of the eyelids. Conjonctiva It fills the front part of the eye, between the lens and the cornea. Aqueous fluid It is the part of the eye that regulates the amount of light that enters the eye. With strong light, it’s muscles will contract the pupil. In darkness, it opens the pupil using the dilator muscles. Iris It is it that enables us to change the focus according to different distances, e.g. when we change focus from a TV screen across the living room to a newspaper in our hand. Lens It sends signals from the eye to the different parts of the brain where the signals are interpreted into images.
