Parts of the Eye
The human eye is like a camera:
Iris- like the diaphragm of a camera it controls the amount of light entering. It is the coloured part of the eye and opens and closes around a central hole to control the light entering the eye.
Pupil- this is the hole in the iris. It is like the aperture in a camera which is where the light enters.
Cornea and Lens- these cause light to converge creating a sharp image. The cornea is a transparent bulge on top of the pupil that focuses light. Light is refracted more through the cornea than the lens.
Light sensitive cells- these cells act like film in a camera, they “store” the image.
Retina- converts light signals into electrical signals that will travel to the brain.
Optic Nerve- used to transmit the signals from the retina to the brain.
