Basic Lesson in Eye Anatomy

The eye is the most sophisticated camera ever designed. This camera is made of living tissue that includes many complex lenses, light and task-adjusted apertures for focus, zoom, motility, depth perception, color, contrast, etc. With advances in modern medicine, most lenses of the eye are replaceable or correctable through LASIK, refractive surgery, glasses, contacts, various corneal transplants, cataract surgery and even clear lens exchange.

However, many parts of the eye derive from brain tissue during fetal development and cannot be replaced. This includes the camera film (retina), the wire to the processor (optic nerve) and the processor itself (brain). All are required for us to experience quality vision as we know it. And we too often take our vision for granted.
