    Sense of Sight
    Eyes-sensory organ for sight, sensitive to
    light
    The eyeball held in a bony socket in the
    skull by three pair of muscles. Muscles
    control movement of eyeballs.
    The eyelids and eyelashes keep dust and
    dirt out of the eyes.
    When we blink, the eyelids wipe tears
    over the eyes, keeping them moist and
    clean and bacteria free.
    Tears contain chemicals that kill bacteria

    Part

    Function

    Sclera

    Protects and gives shape to


    the eye

    Choroid

    Black Pigmented layer that


    absorbs light and prevents the
    reflection of light in eye.
    Detects light stimuli and
    produces nerves impulses to
    be sent to the brain
    Refracts light onto the retina

    Retina

    Cornea

    Conjunctiva Protects the cornea

    Part

    Function

    Iris

    Controls the size of the pupil

    Pupil

    Controls the amount of light


    entering the eye

    Eye lens

    Focuses light so that an image


    form on retina

    Ciliary body
    (Ciliary
    muscle)
    Suspensory
    ligament

    Contrasts and relaxes so that


    an image form on the retina
    Holds the eye lens in its
    position

    Part
    Aqueous
    Humour
    Vitreous
    Humour
    Yellow spot

    Blind spot

    Optic nerve

    Function
    Helps to refract light and helps to
    focus the image onto the retina
    Helps to maintain the shape of the
    eyeball
    The most sensitive part on the
    retina to light
    Detects light or images that fall on
    it and converts them into nervous
    impulses
    The part that is not sensitive to
    light
    Any image formed here is not
    detected
    Carries nervous impulses from the
    retina to the brain to be interpreted
