From outside in:

Cornea-->Anterior chamber and Pupil-->Lens-->Vitreous-->Retina (10 layers but simplified = ganglion-->bipolar-->photoreceptors (rods/cones)).

Note: anatomically the ganglion cells of the retina are reached first by light; however, transduction occurs in the opposite direction from photoreceptors to bipolar cells to ganglion cells (this answer is very oversimplified).

What part of the eye allows light to enter?

The cornea and the pupil are the parts of the eye that allow light to enter. The cornea acts as a protective outer layer that helps to focus light, while the pupil is the opening in the center of the iris that regulates the amount of light entering the eye.


Where does light enter the eye and how does enough light enter so that people can see at night?

Light enters the eye through the cornea, a clear covering over the front of the eye. In low light conditions, the pupil dilates to allow more light to enter the eye. Additionally, the retina contains specialized cells called rods which can detect light even in low lighting, contributing to night vision.
