The eye is a complex sensory organ responsible for vision. Here are some key points about its anatomy and function:
- Structure: The human eye is roughly spherical and consists of several parts:
- Cornea: The transparent front layer that helps focus light.
- Pupil: The opening that allows light to enter the eye.
- Lens: Adjusts focus to help see objects at various distances.
- Retina: The inner layer that contains photoreceptors (rods and cones) that convert light into electrical signals.
- Optic Nerve: Transmits visual information from the retina to the brain.
- Function: The eye detects light and converts it into electrochemical signals, which the brain interprets as visual images. This process involves focusing light onto the retina, where photoreceptors respond to different wavelengths of light.
- Common Conditions: Eyes can be affected by various conditions, including refractive errors (like myopia and hyperopia), cataracts, and glaucoma.
