 Introduction
Eye (anatomy), light-sensitive
organ of vision. Humans eye can
distinguish minute variations of
shape, color, brightness, and
distance. The actual process of
seeing is performed by the brain
rather than by the eye. The
function of the eye is to
translate the electromagnetic
vibrations of light into patterns
of nerve impulses that are
Anatomy of Eye
The parts of eye are as
follows:
 Sclera.
 Choroid.
 Retina.
 Lens.
 Iris.
 Pupil.
 Cornea.
 Optic Nerve.
 Ciliary Muscles.
 Aqueous Chamber.
 Vitreous Chamber.
Layers of eye
The entire eye, often
called the eyeball, is
a spherical structure.
The outer part of the
eye is composed of
three layers of
tissue. The outside
layer is the sclera, a
protective coating.
At the front of the
eyeball, it is
continuous with
transparent cornea.
The middle layer of
the coating of the
eye is the choroid.
The choroid is
 Functioning of Eye
The amount of light entering the eye
is controlled by the pupil, which
dilates and contracts accordingly.
The cornea and lens focus the light
on the retina. Lacrimal glands
secrete tears that wash foreign
bodies out of the eye and keep the
cornea from drying out. Inverted
image is formed on retina which is
conveyed to the brain through optic
 Eye Disorders
 Myopia (Near sightedness)---The
convexity of lens is more than
normal. Image is formed in front of
retina. So the image of distant
object is blurred.

Correction---It is removed by the use

of concave lens.
 Eye Disorders
 Hyper myopia (Far sightedness)---
The convexity of lens is less than
normal. Image is formed in behind
the retina. So the image of near
object is blurred.

Correction---It is removed by the use

of convex lens.
 Eye Disorders
 Color Blindness---Color
Blindness---
Blindness, defect of vision
affecting the ability to
distinguish colors, occurring
mostly in males. Color blindness
is caused by a defect in the
retina
