What are effector organs for sight and sound?

It's not easy to be sure what is meant here. The sight organ is the eye, and the sound organ is the ear, but these are sense organs, i.e. they contain receptors. The larynx makes sound, and this could be classed as an effector if you shout in response to a stimulus, but you can't really think of sight in this way.
