The wonder of eyesight
To put it simply, “seeing" involves our eyes receiving light stimuli from our surroundings and transforming them into nerve impulses. They reach the brain via the optic nerve pathways and are there processed into an image. This requires light to pass unimpeded through the entire eye and fall onto the retina where the transformation process takes place. Spatial vision is only possible in the brain through the combination of information from both eyes.
Here, the eyes work like a camera. As with an objective lens, light passes through the individual components of the eye. The cornea is the bulge of the eyeball and, together with the lens, it collects and focuses light rays. Behind it, the iris with the pupil regulates the incoming light like the diaphragm of a camera.
The macula, or yellow spot, is located in the centre of the retina, immediately next to the optic disc where the optic nerve exits the eye. This is the part of the retina with the greatest density of light receptors and the area of the sharpest vision.
This area is called the yellow spot because it is where the natural dyes lutein and zeaxanthin are deposited – these are yellow pigments which act as “natural sunglasses” for this sensitive area.
