Cornea

Optic Disc

Choroid

Sclera

Function
Releasing a transparent liquid (called
aqueous humor). It also contains the
ciliary muscle, which changes the
shape of the lens.
It controls light inside the eye. The iris
is embedded with tiny muscles that
dilate (widen) and constrict (narrow)
the pupil size.
It located in the center of the iris. It
determines the amount of light that
enter the eyes. Its size is controlled by
the dilator and sphincter muscles of
iris.
It helps to protect the eyelids, the eye
socket, tear, and the sclera. The
cornea acts as the eyes outermost
lens. It functions like a window that
controls and focuses the entry of light
into the eye.
It is connected to the retina and
carries visual information to the
thalamus and other parts of the brain.
It is the middle layer of the eye. It
absorbs light and prevents internal
reflection. It can also produces
cerebrospinal fluid.
To maintain the shape of the globe,
provide a firm anchorage for the extra
ocular muscles that control the eye's

movement, and
protect our eye from outer dust.
Fovea
Located in the center of the macula
Centralis
lutea, the fovea centralis allows the
eye to focus for visual discrimination.
Blood
Transporting oxygen, nutrients and
Vessel
excretion wasting.
Optic
It is responsible for carrying images
Nerve
from the eyes to the brain.
Lens
To help the eye focus on objects at
various distances.
Suspensor To hold the lens in its position and
y
change the focus of the lens.
Ligament
Retina
Its function is to receive and convert
light from the lens into neural signals
that are interpreted by the brain.
