1. Cornea
2. Iris
3. Lens
4. Vitreous Humor
5. Retina
6. Optic Nerve
7. Sclera
8. Choroid
9. Ciliary Body

13. Eyelid
14. Lacrimal Gland
A transparent layer called the cornea allows light to enter the eye and helps to focus it. The light then passes through the pupil, which is the opening through the iris. Because the light is focused, the choroid is held in place by ciliary body. Suspensory ligaments attach the lens to the ciliary body. Contraction of these muscles allows the lens to change shape. The lens focuses the image onto the retina. The retina contains cells called rods and cones that are sensitive to light. Rods detect dim light and motion; cones detect color. The optic nerve carries the impulses to the brain. In the front of the eye, the aqueous humor fills the space between the cornea and the lens. This fluid provides nutrients and maintains intraocular pressure. The sclera is the white, outer layer of the eyeball. It protects the inner structures and provides attachment points for the eye muscles. The choroid is a layer of blood vessels and connective tissue between the sclera and the retina. It supplies oxygen and nutrients to the outer layers of the retina. The vitreous humor is a clear, gel-like substance that fills the space between the lens and the retina. It helps maintain the shape of the eye and transmits light to the retina. The eyelid protects the eye from foreign objects and excessive light. The lacrimal gland produces tears to keep the eye moist and clean. The conjunctiva is a thin, transparent membrane that covers the front of the eye and lines the inside of the eyelids. It helps protect the eye from infection and keeps it lubricated. The ciliary body produces aqueous humor and contains the ciliary muscle, which controls the shape of the lens. The iris controls the size of the pupil and thus the amount of light entering the eye. The pupil is the opening in the center of the iris that allows light to enter the eye. The retina contains photoreceptor cells (rods and cones) that convert light into electrical signals. The optic nerve transmits these signals to the brain for processing. The sclera is the tough, white outer layer of the eyeball that provides protection and structure. The choroid is a vascular layer that nourishes the retina. The vitreous humor is a gel-like substance that fills the posterior cavity of the eye and helps maintain its shape. The eyelid protects the eye and helps distribute tears. The lacrimal gland secretes tears to lubricate and cleanse the eye. The conjunctiva is a mucous membrane that covers the front of the eye and lines the eyelids. The ciliary body produces aqueous humor and controls the shape of the lens. The iris regulates the amount of light entering the eye by adjusting the size of the pupil. The pupil is the opening in the iris that allows light to pass through to the lens and retina. The retina is the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye that converts light into neural signals. The optic nerve carries visual information from the retina to the brain. The sclera is the white, fibrous outer coat of the eyeball that provides protection and attachment for the extraocular muscles. The choroid is a layer of blood vessels and connective tissue that lies between the sclera and the retina. It supplies oxygen and nutrients to the outer layers of the retina. The vitreous humor is a clear, gel-like substance that fills the space between the lens and the retina. It helps maintain the shape of the eye and transmits light to the retina. The eyelid protects the eye from injury and excessive light. The lacrimal gland produces tears to keep the eye moist and free from debris. The conjunctiva is a thin, transparent membrane that covers the front of the eye and lines the inside of the eyelids. It helps protect the eye from infection and keeps it lubricated. The ciliary body produces aqueous humor and contains the ciliary muscle, which controls the shape of the lens. The iris controls the size of the pupil and thus the amount of light entering the eye. The pupil is the opening in the center of the iris that allows light to enter the eye. The retina contains photoreceptor cells (rods and cones) that convert light into electrical signals.
