The sclera is the white outer coating of the eye. ...
Schlemms canal, also known as canal of Schlemm, is a circular channel in the eye that collects aqueous humor from the anterior chamber and delivers it into the bloodstream . ...
This is an area of tissue located around the base of the cornea, near the ciliary body, and is responsible for draining the aqueous humour from the eye via the anterior chamber (the chamber on the front of the eye covered by the cornea). ...
The cornea is the transparent front part of the eye that covers the iris, pupil, and anterior chamber, providing most of an eyes optical power [1]. Together with the lens, the cornea refracts light and, as a result, helps the eye to focus. ...
The conjunctiva is a membrane that covers the sclera (white part of the eye) and lines the inside of the eyelids. ...

Schematic cross section of the human eye; choroid is shown in yellow. ...
tapetum lucidum in a calf eye, with the retina hanging down The tapetum lucidum (Latin: bright carpet) is a reflecting layer immediately behind, and sometimes within, the retina of the eye of many vertebrates (though not humans); it serves to reflect light back to the retina, increasing the quantity of...

The human iris The iris is the grey-brown area. ...
The anterior chamber if the fluid-filled space inside the eye between the iris and the corneas innermost surface, the endothelium . ...
The posterior chamber is a narrow chink behind the peripheral part of the iris, and in front of the suspensory ligament of the lens and the ciliary processes. ...

The fovea, a part of the eye, is a spot located in the center of the macula. ...
The optic disc or optic nerve head is the point in the eye where the optic nerve fibres leave the retina; it is not sensitive to light and thus also known as the blind spot or anatomical blind spot. Inspection of the optic disc by ophthalmoscopy can give an indication...
Aqueous humour | Vitreous humour | Lens The aqueous humour is the clear, watery fluid that fills the complex space in the front of the eye which is bounded at the front by the cornea and at the rear by the front surface or face of the vitreous humour. ...
Vitreous humour is the clear aqueous solution that fills the space between the lens and the retina of the vertebrate eyeball. ...
Light from a single point of a distant object and light from a single point of a near object being brought to a focus by changing the curvature of the lens. ...
