The Structure of the Eye
Cornea:
 Transparent
 Convex-shaped
 Protects eye
 Focus light ray onto the retina
Aqueous Humour:
 Maintains shape of eye
 Provides nutrients and O2
 Carries waste away
Pupil:
 Opening in Iris (black)
Iris:
 Ring of muscles (coloured)
Changes size of pupil to regulate amount of light entering eye
 Dim light (pupil expands) to allow more light to enter eye
 Bright light (pupil contracts) to restrict amount of light entering eye
Lens:
 Transparent
 Flexible
 Convex structure
 Focuses light onto retina
 Lens shape changes when distance of the object being viewed changes
Ciliary Muscles:
 Attached to each end of lens
 Contact and relax enabling lens to automatically bulge (muscles contract) to focus near objects
onto retina, and flatten (muscles relax) to focus distant objects onto retina
...
Straight behind the eye
Blind Spot:
 Optic nerve interrupts the retina
...

 Structures include:
o Eye
o Receptors and Photoreceptors
o Nerve pathways



o Visual cortex
Occurs in two phases:
o Visual sensation (sensory perspective)
o Visual perception (physical perspective)

Visual Sensations
 Process that enables us to receive light from the environment and convert it into a form that
the brain can interpret
...

o Is both a physiological and sensory process
...

 Example:
o Allows us to recognise the face in the mirror
o Enables you to evaluate whether we look happy or sad
 Is both physiological and psychological
 Both physiological and psychological process are involves in us assigning meaning and
organisation to visual stimuli
