The jelly-like material behind the lens of the eye is called the vitreous humor. It helps to maintain the shape of the eyeball, support the retina, and transmit light to the back of the eye for visual processing.
The thick, clear jelly-like substance behind the lens of the eye is called the vitreous humor. It fills the space between the lens and the retina, helping to maintain the eye's shape and providing support to the retina. The vitreous humor also allows light to pass through to the retina, playing a crucial role in vision.
a shape of a lens is curved outwards and concave one are curved in wards
Any convex lens bulges out from each side. It is thicker at the centre of the lens and thinner at the edges. I am supposing that a spherical convex lens has convexity on both sides, but on one of those sides the glass is so curved that it has the shape of part of a sphere.
A convex lens is thicker in the middle than at the edges. This shape causes light rays passing through it to converge, making it a converging lens that can focus light to a point.
The ability of the jelly lens to change shape allows for accommodation, which is essential for the eye to focus on objects at different distances. This helps in maintaining clear vision and preventing eyestrain.
The lens of the eye also called the crystalline lens.
The jelly-like material behind the lens of the eye is called the vitreous humor. It helps to maintain the shape of the eyeball, support the retina, and transmit light to the back of the eye for visual processing.
Muscles in the eye surrounding the lens contract stretching it out, flattening it; or relax, letting it thicken. These changes in shape refocus the lens.
The shape of the lens changes to become thicker in order to focus the light rays correctly onto the retina. This change in shape is called accommodation.
the cornea protects and shapes the eyeball
The lens changes its shape by becoming more convex (thicker in the middle) when focusing on near objects. This shape change is controlled by ciliary muscles in the eye that pull on the lens to make it rounder, allowing for proper focusing on close-up objects.
The clear jelly that gives the eyeball its shape is called the vitreous humor. It is a gel-like substance that fills the space between the lens and the retina of the eye, helping maintain the eye's spherical shape and providing support to the retina.
The ciliary muscle, part of the retina of the eye, changes the focal length of the lens by flattening it or making it more spherical.

Lens
As we age, the proteins in the lens of the eye can degrade and become less flexible, leading to a condition called presbyopia. This results in difficulty focusing on close objects and can make the lens feel like it is no longer as firm or resistant to changes in shape. Age-related changes in the muscle that surrounds the lens can also affect its ability to change shape for focusing, causing the lens to feel looser.
