The retina generates electrical signals from light and sends them through the optic nerves to the brain. The cornea refracts most of the light entering the eye. The lens focuses light on the retina and projects real and inverted images, adjusting focal length for nearby and distant objects. The iris controls the amount of light entering through the pupil and regulates pupil size.
