How you See

The eye & vision

How You See

• The eye collects light from objects and projects them on the light-sensitive portion of the eye, the retina. This information is then translated by the visual part of the brain. Color images are formed from both eyes simultaneously, providing a tree-dimensional image

How you See

• As light enters the eye, it passes through the cornea, into the aqueous humor then to the pupil and lens. The lens of the eye changes it shape in order to focus the light as it further enters the eye. From there, light passes to, and is focused on, the retina: this process is called refraction. Following that, the impulses go to the optic nerve and then to the brain for interpretation.
