☆ The human eye is a spherically shaped sense organ(diameter about 2.3 cm) that gives the sense of sight and helps us perceive colours and depth.☆
- Light enters the eye through a thin membrane that forms a transparent bulge on the front of the eye, called as the cornea.
- Iris is a dark muscular diaphragm that controls the size of the pupil.
- The pupil is the small opening in the centre of the iris.
- The lens which is behind the pupil helps to adjust the focal length required to clearly focus on objects at various distances.
- The retina is the screen where the images get formed. It is a delicate membrane with a large number of photosensitive cells called rods and cones.
- Cones are sensitive to bright light and rods are sensitive to dim light.
- The optic nerve transmits the electrical signals from the eye to the brain.
