 The iris controls the
amount of light
entering the eye
cavities
 The contraction of
radial or circular
smooth muscles
located within the iris
permit changes in
the pupil diameter
 Three cell layers:
-- outer layer:
photoreceptors- rods
and cones
-- middle layer: bipolar
neurons
-- inner layer: ganglion
cells
