The human eye has three distinct layers, the outer, middle and inner one. The middle layer consists of the choroid, ciliary body and iris. The choroid is a dark pigmented thin vascular layer; thickening of the choroid in anterior forms ciliary body. Towards the front, choroid becomes doughnut-shaped iris which is the coloured part of the eye.
What is the function of the iris in human eye ? Iris restricts the light to pass through the eye over to the retina. Iris allows colour detection in eye. Iris provides protection to the eye from microorganisms. Iris controls the size of the pupil and hence the amount of light entering the eye.

Iris defines a person’s eye color. If we define the human eye as a camera then the iris becomes aperture of the eye. Pupil. The part of the eye located in the center of the iris allowing light to reach the retina. The pupil appears black in color since the eye tissues absorb or diffusely reflect the light entering the pupil. Iris controls the ...
Solution. Verified by Toppr. The iris controls the amount of light entering the eyes. The Iris automatically adjusts the size of the pupil according to the intensity of light received by the eye. If the amount of light received by the eye is larger, then the iris contracts the pupil and reduces the amount of light entering the eye.
Fovea. Open in App. Solution. Verified by Toppr. The iris is the area of the eye that contains the pigment which gives the eye its colour.

Light enters our eye through the cornea, the clear, curved layer in front of the iris and pupil. After passing through the cornea, light travels through the pupil which is surrounded by iris and behind the iris sits the lens which changes the shape and focuses light onto the retina then the photoreceptors in the retina convert the image into electrical signals, which are carried to the brain ...
There are many similarities between the human eye and a camera, including, a diaphragm to control the amount of light that gets through to the lens. This is the shutter in a camera and the pupil, at the center of the iris, in the human eye. A lens to focus the light and create an image. The image is real and inverted. A method of sensing the image.
Uvea is the pigmented layer of eye that lies beneath sclera and cornea. It comprises of choroid, iris and ciliary body. Retina is the inner layer of eye that contain photoreceptor cells. Iris is a pigmented and opaque structure present in choroid. It gives colour to the eye and controls the amount of light entering the eye by changing the shape ...
