Four kinds of light-sensitive receptors are found in the retina:
Each type of receptor has its own special pigment for absorbing light. Each consists of:
The amino acid sequence of each of the four types of opsin are similar, but the differences account for their differences in absorption spectrum. The retina also contains a complex array of interneurons:
Ganglion cells are always active. Even in the dark they generate trains of action potentials and conduct them back to the brain along the optic nerve. Vision is based on the modulation of these nerve impulses. There is not the direct relationship between visual stimulus and an action potential that is found in the senses of hearing, taste, and smell. In fact, action potentials are not even generated in the rods and cones.
pupil
That part is called as pupil. Through this aperture the light goes in to retina.
The steps of light being received by the eye are: generation of light passage of light to the eye through the tear film through the cornea through the aqueous humor through the lens through the vitreous humor through the layers of the retina to the photoreceptors of the retina

The answer to this question is the retina .......... It's the retina because everything is upside down, bends, goes up to the brain and flips it around........and that is why the light is always focused on the retina
pupil
That part is called as pupil. Through this aperture the light goes in to retina.
Opaque basically means that something is not transparent; light can not pass through. For an example: the choroid of the eye is opaque, it absorbs excessive light so multiple images do not appear on the retina. Keep in mind that absorbing light is not the same thing as passing through. The choroid basically stops too much light from hitting the retina.

The tapetum helps them see at night. It is behind the retina. When light goes through the retina, it strikes the tapetum and passes back through the retina, illuminating the image on the retina a second time. This is why it looks like their eyes glow when light hits them at night. The light is escaping out through the pupil.
through the lens to the retina
retina
The light (in the form of photons) travel in a straight line, passing through the pupil and striking the retina. If you imagine the path the light is taking while you look at a tall object, light from the top will be angled down and strike the bottom of your retina, while light from the bottom will strike the top. That's they they appear upside down at the back of the eye.

Lens, Cornea, Humerus focus light into the retina
The condenser adjusts the amount of light passing through the specimen.
