definition of eye :- The human is an organ that converts light into a set of electrical signals and transmits these these signals to the brain.

Q. why do eyes of animals shine in the night ?
ans. They have a special type of reflective layer behind the pupil of their eyes known as tapetum lucidum.
cornea :- the cornea is the outer layer at the front of the eye. transparent structure at the front of the eye.
- The cornea helps our eye to focus light so we can see clearly.
- The cornea acts as the eye's outer most lens. controls and focuses the entry of light into the eye.
- The cornea is shaped like a dome and bends light to help the eye focus. It is the eyes primary light focusing structure.
Anterior chamber :- Anterior chamber is the part of the eye between the cornea and the iris.
The anterior chamber is filled with a watery fluid known as the aqueous humor. anterior chamber is 3mm deep and it contains 0.25ml of the aqueous humor.
Iris :- The colored tissue in eye that contans the pupil in the center. The iris helps control the size of the pupil.
Q. What is the function of iris in the eye ?
ans.- The iris controls the amount of light that enters the eye.
- The iris lies in front of the crystalline lens and separates the anterior chamber from the posterior chamber.
Q. Why is iris colored ?
ans.- The color of the iris is based on the amount of pigment, or melanin.
- The more pigment present the darker the eyes.
Pupil :- The pupil is the opening in the center of the iris. Function of the pupil is to allow light to enter the eye so it can be focused on the retina . the pupils appear perfectly round and black in color.
Q . Why is pupil black ?
ans.- The black color is because light that passes through the pupil is total abserbed by the retina and is not reflected back.
in low light conditions - the pupil dilates so more light can reach the retina to improve night vision.
in bright condition - the pupil constricts
Generally normal pupil size in adults ranges from 2 to 4 millimeters in bright light to 4 to 8mm in the dark.
both pupils normally constrict when you focus on a near object.
Rectangular pupil - sheep, Goats , octopuses and toads
spherical - human
vertical slite - cats, snakes alligators and crocodiles.
