The document provides an overview of the anatomy of the eye, describing its three main layers - the outer sclera and cornea layer, the intermediate iris and ciliary body layer, and the inner retinal layer. It explains the key structures and functions of the eye, including the pupil, sclera, cornea, iris, ciliary body, choroid, retina, optic nerve, and the aqueous and vitreous humors that fill the eye's chambers.

4. Black looking aperture (black due to the absorbing
pigment of the retina )
Allows the light to enter to the eye

5. SCLERA

6.  COLORED, RING MEMBRANE
 GIVES COLOUR TO THE EYE
 CONTROLS THE SIZE OF THE PUPIL DEPENDING ON THE AMOUNT
OF LIGHT ENTERING INTO THE EYE

7. EXTERNAL LAYER – SCLERA AND CORNEA
INTERMEDIATE LAYER- ANTERIOR (IRIS AND CILIARY BODY )
AND POSTERIOR (CHOROID )
INTERNAL LAYER – RETINA ( THE SENSORY PART )

8.  At the front of eyeball , sclera continues into
cornea .
 Dome-shaped transparent part of eyeball
 Rays of light from outside world passes through
cornea before passing through the lens

9. Middle layer of the eyeball.
 located between sclera and retina .
Provides nutrients and oxygen to the outer surface of the
retina.

10. The space between cornea and lens
Filled with aqueous humor

11.  Largest chamber of the eye
 Between lens and retina
 Filled with the amorphous somewhat gelatinous
material of the vitreous body

13.  Second of several pairs of cranial nerves
 The job of this nerve is to transfer visual information from
retina to visual centre of brain via electrical impulse
The optic nerve made up of ganglion cells or nerve cell
