What is the vascular middle layer of the eye that provides the eye with blood called?

This is the middle layer of the eyeball and it is composed of the choroid, ciliary body and iris.


Heavily pigmented tunic that prevents light scattering within the eye?

The black pigmented lining called the Choroid, on the inside of the eye.


What does the choroid of the eye do?

The choroid is a layer of the eye deep to the retina and superficial to the sclera. It provides oxygen and nutrients to the retina through its extensive network of capillaries. The retina itself does not have a huge vascular supply, because the vessels would interfere with the formation of the image in the eye. This is why the choroid is necessary. The choroid is also very heavily pigmented due to an abundance of melanin. This increased pigment allows the choroid to absorb excess light and minimize reflections within the eye. The choroid along with the iris and ciliary body make up what is known as the uveal tract.


How does the nature of the sclera and choroid change as they reach the front part of the eye?

I think this is correct! The sclera turns into the cornea, which is the transparent portion of the eye. The choroid also becomes transparent to allow more light into the eye.


The dark middle layer of the eye that prevents the scattering of light is the?

choroid - a highly vascular membrane in the eye between the retina and the sclera; a dark pigmentation minimizes the scattering of light inside the eye.(http://www.thefreedictionary.com/choroid)
