When a person looks at an image, light rays pass through the eye and focus on the:
A
Pupil
B
Retina
C
Optic nerve
D
Lens
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -When light hits the retina (a light-sensitive layer of tissue at the back of the eye), special cells called photoreceptors turn the light into electrical signals. These electrical signals travel from the retina through the optic nerve to the brain. Then the brain turns the signals into the images you see.

Detailed explanation-2: -The lens focuses the light on the retina. This is achieved by the ciliary muscles in the eye changing the shape of the lens, bending or flattening it to focus the light rays on the retina. This adjustment in the lens, known as accommodation, is necessary for bringing near and far objects into focus.

Detailed explanation-3: –The light then passes over the pupil and hits the lens of the eye.-The lens which is also convex further focuses the light so that it will hit the retina at the back of the eyeball that forms the image. The image that is formed on the retina is real and inverted.

Detailed explanation-4: -The lens focuses light through the vitreous humor, a clear gel-like substance that fills the back of the eye and supports the retina. The retina receives the image that the cornea focuses through the eye’s internal lens and transforms this image into electrical impulses that are carried by the optic nerve to the brain.

Detailed explanation-5: -Light enters the eye through the cornea. From the cornea, the light passes through the pupil. From there, it then hits the lens. Next, light passes through the vitreous humor. Finally, the light reaches the retina. More items
