Lens
The lens is a transparent body behind the iris, the coloured part of the eye. The lens bends light rays so that they form a clear image at the back of the eye - on the retina. As the lens is elastic, it can change shape, getting fatter to focus close objects and thinner for distant objects.
It bends as it 1. enters the cornea
2. enters the lens
3. leaves the lens

∙ 9y agoBoth the cornea and the lens work to focus light that enters the eye. Once the light passes through these two parts of the eye, it hits the retina which sends signals to the brain, allowing it to process what is being seen.

What part of the eye behind the pupil is bent and stretched by the ciliary body to further refract light?
The eye lens is adjusted to further refract light so that a clear image falls on the retina and is transmitted to the brain.
Where does light first enters your eye?
Light rays enter the eye through the cornea.
Does the lens in the eye have fixed curvature?
The curvature lens of an eye is a transparent structure of eye which works to refract light to be focused on retina. The curvature adjusts according to angle and view therefore it is not fixed.
Can a telescope refract light?
The human eye is a refractor, but the telescope could be either refractor or a reflector.
What is bending of light rays by the cornea lens and fluids of the eye is?
Refraction.
What happens if the eye doesn't refract light rays correctly?
If the rays arer not refracted correctly by the parts, vision can be distorted or blurred.
Should eyeglasses reflect or refract light into the eye?
Refract light. They only reflect when you see a glare or ghost image
Is the human eye concave to allow it to optically refract light?
no
What part of the eye behind the pupil is bent and stretched by the ciliary body to further refract light?
The eye lens is adjusted to further refract light so that a clear image falls on the retina and is transmitted to the brain.
What part of the eye functions to bend light rays?
The Lens is the part of the eye that bends light rays .
How does the eye respond to light rays to manifest long sightedness?
how does the eye respond to light rays to manifest far sightedness
Does the iris refract light?
Refraction happens in the cornea of the eye. It can be corrected with glasses or contacts.
Does angle effect red eye?
What effect does angle have on red-eye effect?: Angles refract light into your eye and into the lens cap causing the red. Angles of light effect red-eye by reflecting light in certain directions of your eye.
What travels from the object to your eye?
Light rays.
What do the cornea and the lens have in common?
Both focus light
Which color of light enters the observers eye from rain drops higher up?
Colours which refract less.
Where does light first enters your eye?
Light rays enter the eye through the cornea.
