different parts and function. The cornea is a clear covering over the colored iris and the pupil of the eye. The function of cornea is to help focus light on the retina and protect the iris‚ lens‚ etc. so that the eye can see. The cornea is best to compare with a standard contact lens. Although‚ the function of a cornea is to protect from harmful microorganisms‚ it is also vulnerable to those same unicellular organisms. One of the major diseases affecting the cornea is a corneal ulcer. A corneal

clear visual image to be formed the image must come to a point on the retina. Light rays do not normally travel toward each other‚ usually the light rays either travel outwards or almost parallel‚ for this reason the light rays must be refracted. The cornea is the primary place of refraction‚ the "bent" light rays then travel through the aqueous humor and the pupil to the lens. Here the light is one again refracted even closer together‚ the light then goes through the vitreous humor and is projected

the cases of conical cornea and also he described several classical features of the diseases such as polyopia‚ weakness of the cornea‚ and difficulty matching corrective lenses to the patients vision. In 1859‚ a British surgeon named William Bowman to diagnose keratoconus used an ophthalmoscope to see the conical shape of the cornea. According to Wikipedia encyclopedia‚ Bowman also attempted to restore the vision by pulling on the iris with a fine hook inserted through the cornea and stretching the

clock.. The cornea is a very important part of the eye‚ but you can hardly see it because it’s made of clear tissue. Like glass‚ the cornea gives your eye a window in which to view the world. The a cornea is a transparent tissue covering the front of the eye. The cornea covers both the pupil and he iris eye‚ and it is partially responsible to focus light. The cornea is part of the external structure of the eyeball. The external layer of the eyeball is formed by the cornea‚ and the sclera

By further cutting down the fat‚ we were able to spot a rather tough pinkie white outer covering of the eyeball‚ which we later discovered to be known as the sclera. We also noticed the blue covering over the front of the eye‚ known as the cornea‚ which became cloudy after death. Finally beginning the dissection‚ we made an incision in between the sclera and cornea which took much effort as it was quite tough. However

is Myopia (Nearsightedness)‚ Hyperopia (Farsightedness). Nature of the Condition Myopia is a common vision impairment in which close objects are seen clear but far objects appear blurry. Nearsightedness occurs if the eyeball is too long or the cornea‚ the clear front cover of the eye‚ has too much curvature. As a result‚ the light entering the eye isn’t focused correctly. This inaccuracy is called a refractive error. In other words‚ an over focused fuzzy image is sent to the brain. Figure

movement. The orbicularis oculi closes the eyelids and is innervated by cranial nerve 7. Patients with a facial nerve paralyses‚ such as after Bell’s Palsy‚ can’t close their eye and the eye may need to be patched (or sutured closed) to protect the cornea. The levator palpebrae opens the eye and is innervated by CN3. Oculomotor nerve palsy is the major cause of ptosis (drooping of the eye). In fact‚ a common surgical treatment for ptosis involves shortening the levator tendon to open up the eye. CN

or pen Background: There are many critical parts of the eye that help you see. There are many parts of the eye that help you interpret images: the cornea‚ lens‚ retina‚ iris‚ and optic nerve. The optic nerve takes in light from the retina and send it’s to the brain. When the eye first take parts at looking at light it goes straight to the cornea and aqueous humor which helps focus the image. Then it will go to the retina which will transmit the light to the optic nerve. From there the light is
