The structure that produces tears to protect and lubricate the eyeball.
eyeball
lacrimal apparatus
palpebra
Photoreceptor cells capable of sensing specific wavelengths of light (red, green, and blue), and hence color, and fine detail.
bipolar neuron
unipolar neuron
cones
The eye-wall's middle layer that contains blood vessels and muscle that controls the lens.
vascular
retina
fibrous
cornea
The clear part in the front of the outer fibrous layer of the eye.
cornea
choroid
iris
pupil
The colored part of the eye, part of the vascular layer, that regulates how much light is allowed into the eye by controlling the size of the pupil.
cornea
iris
fibrous
choroid
The property that our brain perceives as different colors or hues in vision.
light wave frequency
light wave magnitude
light wave intensity
light wave brightness
A type of cell in the retina that has one projection listening to photoreceptor cells and one projection synapsing with another neuron.
rod
bipolar neuron
ganglion neuron
cone
The property that our brain perceives as different brightnesses in vision.
light wave focus
light wave magnitude
light wave frequency
The type of cell in the retina that gathers signals from many other cells, then uses its axons to carry the signals through the optic nerve to the brain.
rod
bipolar neuron
ganglion neuron
The ring of the muscle at the front of the vascular layer that holds and contains the lens.
pupil
lens
ciliary body
cornea
The hole in the front of the eye's vascular layer through which light can enter.
pupil
sclera
cornea
Receptor cells capable of sensing lower levels of light, but are perceived as grayscale, and are important in peripheral vision.
cone
unipolar neuron
rods
ganglion neuron
The white part of the outer fibrous layer of the eye.
iris
sclera
vascular
pupil
The transparent disc held and stretched by the ciliary muscles that focuses images on the retina.
lens
pupil
sclera
ciliary body
The innermost layer of the eyeball's wall containing all of the photoreceptor cells.
retina
sclera
lens
vascular
A type of cell in the retina that gathers signals from many other cells, then uses its axons to carry the signals through the optic nerve to the brain.
cone
multipolar neuron
ganglion neuron
ród
The outermost tunic or layer of the eye that is made up of the white part around the sides and the clear part in front.
fibrous
cornea
choroid
lens
The muscles that move the eyeball to look in different directions.
extrinsic eye muscles
intraocular muscles
intrinsic eye muscles
ocular muscles
The part of the vascular layer around the sides and back of the eyeball that carries many blood vessels.
choroid
pupil
sclera
fibrous
The clear part in the front of the outer fibrous layer of the eye.
choroid
lens
cornea
The structure that produces tears to protect and lubricate the eyeball.
lacrimal apparatus
palpebra
eyelash
The outermost tunic or layer of the eye that is made up of the white part around the sides and the clear part in front.
