Best Answer

The eye can be broken down into two chambers.

The anterior chamber is the area between the cornea (the clear, front surface of the eye) to the lens. It contains the watery aqueous humour.

The posterior chamber is the area from the back of the lens to the retina. This contains the jelly-like vitreous humour.
