  • Cornea -Bends light into eyes
  • Iris -Its the coloured bit of the eye and it controls the size of your pupil
  • Pupil -Controls light entering eyes
  • Lens -Focuses light on retina
  • Retina -A row of light sensitive cells that turn light into electrical impulses
  • Optical Nerves -Carries electrical impulses from eyes to brain
  • Having 2 eyes are better then just having one because when we look at something both our eyes see something slightly different so our brains put the 2 pictures together allowing us to see 3 dimensions.
  • Having 2 eyes enables us to judge distance
  • Light is a form of energy and travels as a wave
  • Light always travels in a straight line
  • Shadows are formed when an object prevents light from passing through it
  • The angle of incidence is the angle measured between the incident ray and normal
  • The angle of reflection is the angle measured between the reflected ray and normal
  • For a flat mirror the angle of incidence equals to the angle of reflection
  • When light passes from air to into glass its direction changes
  • The angle of refraction is smaller than the angle of incidence
  • Lenses can be described as either a convex or concave lens
  • When light passes through a convex lens the rays converge to a point called the focus point
  • When light passes through a concave lens the light rays diverge (spread out)
