The colored part of your eye contains a lense, just like a camera or glasses. The light passes through it (thru the black hole in the center of your eye) and the image is projected on the back of your eye. Optical Nerves on the back of your eye "read" the light and colors and transmits that to your brain for processing.
It is also transmitted through refraction. Google eyes and refraction for a better understanding of this. N btw. Who ever wrote the first paragraph cant spell and thinks you dont know what the pupil in your eye is. :)

∙ 10y agoA ray of light strikes the cornea, and passes through a fluid filled chamber, the aqueous humour, behind it to reach the iris and pupil. The light will pass through the pupil to the lens, which turns the image upside down and focuses it on the back of the eyeball, the retina. Between the lens and the retina, the light travels through another fluid filled chamber called the vitreous humour. Once the image hits the retina the optic nerve gets simulated by the image and sends an impulse to a part of the brain called the cerebrum for the image to be right side up.

∙ 10y agoWhen light enters the eye through the pupil ("aperture"), it first passes through the lens which helps to focus the image/light rays so that they fall perfectly on the retina at the back of the eye.

Through the lens to the retina.

What is the reception of light by the human eye?
The reception of light by the human eye is more commonly known as vision or sight. This is when light rays are bounced off an object into an eye and sent to the brain in the form of an image.
What happens when light falls on a wooden chair?
some part of light reflected from the chair enters our eyes
Light travelling through a pair of eyeglasses is called?
The eyeglass has a refracting effect that bends the path of light into your eye at the right angle.
What part focuses light?
A parabolic mirror best focuses light onto a spot. Or a convex lens will do similar. In the eye, the lens towards the front of the eye focuses light onto the retina, where the light sensitive cells lie.
What does a mirror reflect facing a mirror?
A "mirror" is defined as something that reflects visible light. Therefore, two mirrors facing each other will only reflect any light that comes into contact with them, along with any visible distortions inherent to the reflecting process, such as coloration from the metal in the mirror and impurities in the glass. Given two theoretically "perfect" mirrors facing each other, the only thing reflected would be light. In the absence of friction or other interference, the light would travel infinitely and eternally. If one were able to look directly at this, one would literally just see light, as far as the eye could see. Contrary to popular belief, mirrors do not reflect images. They reflect the light coming from objects and redirect that light to the human eye, giving the impression of an "image." In reality, the eye is seeing the actual object. It's just that the light coming from the object has been redirected.
What part of eye does light pass?
through the lens to the retina
When a light ray strikes the eye what part of the eye does it first pass through?
The cornea is the clear part of the outer tunic of the eye through which light passes.
In order for a person to see an object light waves pass through what part of your eye?
The cornea
The colored part of a human eye is called?
The iris is the coloured part of the eye.
How does light pass through the lens of the eye?
what do you mean
Does the pupil absorb the light?
The pupil is actually the absence of the iris (colored part of the eye), so it only allows light to pass through it and helps control how much light passes to the back of the eye.
What part of the eye captures the light rays that are reflected off an object being looked at?
The eye does not actively capture the light rays that are reflected off the object being looked at. They pass into the eye through the cornea..

What part of the eye allows light to enter?

Where are light signals that pass through the eye interpreted?
