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. :)

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.

Light travelling through a pair of eyeglasses is called?

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.

In order for a person to see an object light waves pass through what part of your eye?

Light waves pass through the cornea, which is the transparent outer covering of the eye. The cornea helps to focus light onto the retina at the back of the eye, where the light is then converted into electrical signals that the brain interprets as visual information.

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.
