EYE
The eye is an extension of the brain

EYE BRAIN PROXOMITY
Can you see :
the optic nerve bundle?
spinal cord?

CROSS SECTION
You must know the position of:
Retina
Lens
Cornea
Sclerotic
Optic nerve
Cilary muscles
Suspensory ligaments

RETINA – RECEIVES THE IMAGE
Full of light receptors which are sensitive to: Colour Light levels
Massive blood supply is also needed
Fovea is the main focal point and has greatest density of light receptors
![Page 6: E YE S TRUCTURE – HOW COLOUR IS SEEN Describe how colour is able to be seen by the human eye](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070414/5697c01a1a28abf838ccf2ad/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
RETINA RECEPTORS
Light receptors are called rods and cones

FOCUSING ON OBJECTS
The lens and cornea focus the light on the retina
![Page 8: E YE S TRUCTURE – HOW COLOUR IS SEEN Describe how colour is able to be seen by the human eye](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070414/5697c01a1a28abf838ccf2ad/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
FOCUSING The lens job is
to make the rays hit the same point
The red rays will be out of focus
![Page 9: E YE S TRUCTURE – HOW COLOUR IS SEEN Describe how colour is able to be seen by the human eye](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070414/5697c01a1a28abf838ccf2ad/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
BENDING LIGHT
Light is refracted and bent to focus it as it passes through the lens
Lens thickness can be changed so the amount of bending is changed
![Page 10: E YE S TRUCTURE – HOW COLOUR IS SEEN Describe how colour is able to be seen by the human eye](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070414/5697c01a1a28abf838ccf2ad/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
LONG SIGHTED
A fat lens is needed to bend the light more to focus it.
![Page 11: E YE S TRUCTURE – HOW COLOUR IS SEEN Describe how colour is able to be seen by the human eye](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070414/5697c01a1a28abf838ccf2ad/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
SHORT SIGHTED
Rays enter the eye closer together
Need less bending
Thinner lens needed
![Page 12: E YE S TRUCTURE – HOW COLOUR IS SEEN Describe how colour is able to be seen by the human eye](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070414/5697c01a1a28abf838ccf2ad/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
CHANGING LENS THICKNESS The lens is slightly
elastic, its relaxed state is short and fat.
Cilary muscles are attached to the lens, when contracted they pull the lens thin

CONTROLLING LIGHT LEVELS
Your eye are very sensitive and can be damaged by harsh light.
Your iris controls light allowed into the eye by changing the size of the pupil
![Page 14: E YE S TRUCTURE – HOW COLOUR IS SEEN Describe how colour is able to be seen by the human eye](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070414/5697c01a1a28abf838ccf2ad/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
SEEING COLOURS
The retina has receptors that are sensitive to colours and give you your colour vision.
There are others that are sensitive to shades of light and give you your black and white vision.
