Eye is the official journal of the Royal College of Ophthalmologists. It aims to provide the practising ophthalmologist with information on the latest clinical and laboratory-based research.

The eye is kept moist by secretions of the lacrimal glands (tear glands). These almond-shaped glands under the upper lids extend inward from the outer corner of each eye.

Your eye structure lets light enter and pass through a series of clear components and sections, including the cornea, aqueous humor, lens and vitreous humor. Those structures bend and focus light, adjusting how far the light beams travel before they come into focus.

Human eyes are crucially important in so many ways, and they are also incredibly complicated. Here's everything you need to know about the eye.

To understand the diseases and conditions that can affect the eye, it helps to understand basic eye anatomy. Here is a tour of the eye starting from the outside, going in through the front and working to the back.

Learn the basics of eye anatomy: the main parts of the human eye, how they function and how vision works. Includes an illustration of human eye anatomy.

The human eye is a complex organ composed of several interconnected parts, each with a specific function in vision. Let's explore these components and their roles in enabling us to see the world around us.
