Does the lens of the eye control the amount of light that strikes the retina?

No, the lens of the eye helps to focus light onto the retina, but it does not control the amount of light that strikes the retina. The iris, the colored part of the eye, controls the amount of light entering the eye by adjusting the size of the pupil.


How does light first enter the eyes?

The steps of light being received by the eye are: generation of light passage of light to the eye through the tear film through the cornea through the aqueous humor through the lens through the vitreous humor through the layers of the retina to the photoreceptors of the retina


What is the color of rabbit eyes in sudden bright light?

Usually they flash out red. Especially the large white rabbits. Another answer: The rabbit's eye colour doesn't change in a flash of sudden bright light. The pupils get smaller, but the colour doesn't change. What might make it look like a colour change is the light itself reflecting off the surface of the eye, causing a red colour -- but that is a trick of the light. Wild rabbits have dark brown eyes (so dark it can be hard to differentiate the pupil from the iris); pet rabbits do, too, but also sometimes they have red eyes or blue eyes.


What happens when igniting Mg ribbon?

It gives off a bright white light (glowing manner) that shouldn't be looked at with the naked eye.


What happens to the iris to allow less light to enter the eye?

The iris contracts to allow less light to enter the eye. This is controlled by the autonomic nervous system in response to changing light conditions, helping to regulate the amount of light reaching the retina.

Why can't you read without light?

The retina of the eye requires light in order to work. Vision is stimulated when light strikes this layer of the eye, so if there is no light, there is no vision.


What happen when light strikes the eye?

Like a flashlight? It stings for like a second and then for about 2-6 seconds there are little fragments of light in your vision. Same thing happens if you star at the sun. If you stare at the sun or a flashlight turned on to long you could become blind.


How does light enter the eye?

Light enters the eye through the cornea, a transparent outer covering that helps focus the incoming light. The light then passes through the pupil, the small opening in the center of the iris, which adjusts its size to control the amount of light entering the eye.


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.


How do periscopes reflect from light?

Light from a distant object strikes the top mirror and is then reflected at an angle of 90 degrees down the periscope tube. At the bottom of the periscope, the light strikes another mirror and is then reflected into the viewer's eye. hope this helped :>

What happens once the reflected light reaches the human eye?

The eye will close by the message sent to the brain that light is in the eye (depending on the lights brightness). Or the pupil will reduce in size.


What happens when a infrared wave strikes an object?

it doesnt reflect but it stays on the object and only reflects enough so that the human eye can see it.


What happens to the pupil not exposed to light?

When a light is not shined into an eye the pupil contracts gets bigger because the eye needs all the light being presented to it. If the light is not taken away the pupil does not dilate. PS like the eye gets smaller in the light.


What happens if the pupil doesn't work?

If the pupil of the eye did not work, than your eye could not regulate light entering it.


Which objects use the reflection of light?

Mirrors function by reflecting light, providing a surface that light beams bounce off at. Light striking your face then strikes the mirror and is reflected into your eye, allowing you to see yourself in the morning.
