The Iris
No, the choroid is not the pigmented layer of the eye. The pigmented layer is called the retina, specifically the pigmented epithelium layer of the retina. The choroid is a vascular layer located behind the retina that provides oxygen and nutrients to the retina.
The pigmented portion of the eye with a rounded opening through which light passes is the iris. The iris controls the size of the pupil, which regulates the amount of light entering the eye.
Retina
The radial and circular muscles of the iris.
No, the ectoderm is not uniformly pigmented. Pigment distribution can vary within the ectoderm due to factors like genetic variation, exposure to sunlight, and presence of certain pigments like melanin.
The pigmented layer of the eye is called the uvea.
No, the choroid is not the pigmented layer of the eye. The pigmented layer is called the retina, specifically the pigmented epithelium layer of the retina. The choroid is a vascular layer located behind the retina that provides oxygen and nutrients to the retina.
The choroid is the layer responsible for providing the pigmentation that forms most of the pigmented vascular tunic of the eye. It helps to absorb excess light and prevent reflection within the eye, contributing to visual acuity.
The pigmented tunic you are referring to is the choroid, which contains melanin that absorbs excess light and prevents it from scattering within the eye. This helps to improve visual acuity and reduce glare.

The diaphragm of a microscope focuses the light into the eye piece to create optimum viewing of the specimen.
The coloured (or pigmented) part of the eye is the iris.
