Eye necklace | sterling silver
The eye — an outgrowth of the brain that converts light into neural signals, with a resolution and dynamic range that camera engineers have spent decades trying to match.
The Anatomy of the Eye
The human eye is an approximately spherical organ, roughly 24mm in diameter. The cornea and lens together focus light onto the retina — a thin sheet of neural tissue lining the posterior segment. The retina contains approximately 120 million rod photoreceptors (for dim light, monochromatic vision) and 6 million cone photoreceptors (for colour vision in bright light) concentrated in the macula, with peak density at the fovea centralis. Photoreceptor signals are processed by bipolar and ganglion cells; the axons of the ganglion cells form the optic nerve, which exits at the optic disc — the physiological blind spot. The aqueous humour (anterior chamber) and vitreous humour (posterior chamber) maintain intraocular pressure and optical clarity. The iris regulates pupil diameter and thus depth of field and light entry.
