Vt 1 t-t Its a miracle) From the moment you open a book, six small muscles aim each eye exactly at the words you want to read. The iris changes in size to admit just the right amount of light your eyes need to see clearly. Other tiny muscles adjust the thickness of each lens to focus an image on the retina, the light-sensitive screen at the back of the eye. Millions of cells react to the intensity of color and light, generating signals to a portion of the retina that gives us clean vision. The rest of the retina gets a general view of the rest of the environment in your field of vision. The signals from both your •yas travsl along a bundlo of nsrvo II bars to a sactlon of tha brain whara what you saa Is translatad Into a singla pictura.
