  • the eye is a sense organ enabling us to receive light rays to transmit them to our brain producing an image
  • receptor cells in the eye allow the eye to detect light intensity and colour
  • far objects

    lens are thin so light rays refract less, to make them thinner the suspensory ligaments contract and ciliary muscles relax
  • near objects

    lens becomes thicker so light rays refract more, to make them thicker the suspensory ligaments relax ciliary muscles contract
  • accommodation
    lens changes shape, controlled by the ciliary muscles and suspensory ligaments to focus on near or distant objects
