Let’s go step by step to match each blank box in the eye diagram with the correct term from the list below.
We’ll start from the front of the eye (left side) and move toward the back (right side), following the lines pointing to different parts.
---
Front of the Eye (Left Side):
1. The very first clear, curved layer at the front — that’s the
CORNEA. It’s like a window for light to enter.
2. Just behind the cornea is the colored part — that’s the
IRIS.
3. The hole in the middle of the iris where light goes through — that’s the
PUPIL.
4. Behind the pupil is the clear, bouncy structure that focuses light — that’s the
LENS.
5. Holding the lens in place are tiny strings — those are the
SUSPENSORY LIGAMENT.
6. Around the lens, there’s a muscle ring that helps change the lens shape — that’s the
CILIARY BODY.
7. The white outer layer covering most of the eye — that’s the
SCLERA.
8. Inside the front chamber (between cornea and lens), there’s fluid — that’s the
AQUEOUS HUMOR.

Back of the Eye (Right Side):
9. The inner lining at the back that detects light — that’s the
RETINA.
10. In the center of the retina, the sharpest vision spot — that’s the
FOVEA.
11. Where the optic nerve starts — no photoreceptors here — that’s the
OPTIC DISK.
12. The bundle of nerves carrying signals to the brain — that’s the
OPTIC NERVE.
13. The blood vessel entering the eye near the optic nerve — that’s the
CENTRAL ARTERY.
14. The thick gel filling the big space inside the eye — that’s the
VITREOUS HUMOR.
15. Between the sclera and retina, a vascular layer — that’s the
CHOROID.

Now let’s assign them to the boxes based on typical labeling order in such diagrams:
From top-left going down:
- Topmost left box → likely
CORNEA
- Next down →
IRIS
- Then →
PUPIL
- Then →
LENS
- Then →
SUSPENSORY LIGAMENT
- Then →
CILIARY BODY
- Then →
SCLERA
- Bottom left →
AQUEOUS HUMOR
Top right boxes (from top down):
- First →
VITREOUS HUMOR
- Second →
RETINA
- Third →
FOVEA
- Fourth →
OPTIC DISK
- Fifth →
OPTIC NERVE
- Sixth →
CENTRAL ARTERY
- Seventh →
CHOROID
Wait — we have 15 terms total. Let’s count how many blanks there are in the image description.
Looking again:
Left side has 8 boxes (top to bottom).
Right side has 7 boxes (top to bottom).
Total = 15 blanks → matches 15 terms.
So final matching:
Left Column (front to back, top to bottom):
1. CORNEA
2. IRIS
3. PUPIL
4. LENS
5. SUSPENSORY LIGAMENT
6. CILIARY BODY
7. SCLERA
8. AQUEOUS HUMOR
Right Column (back of eye, top to bottom):
9. VITREOUS HUMOR
10. RETINA
11. FOVEA
12. OPTIC DISK
13. OPTIC NERVE
14. CENTRAL ARTERY
15. CHOROID
This covers all 15 labeled parts correctly.
Final Answer:
CORNEA, IRIS, PUPIL, LENS, SUSPENSORY LIGAMENT, CILIARY BODY, SCLERA, AQUEOUS HUMOR, VITREOUS HUMOR, RETINA, FOVEA, OPTIC DISK, OPTIC NERVE, CENTRAL ARTERY, CHOROID
