2. Human eye - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_eye

   The approximate field of view of an individual human eye (measured from the fixation point, i.e., the point at which one's gaze is directed) varies by facial anatomy, but is typically 30° superior (up, limited by the brow), 45° nasal (limited by the nose), 70° inferior (down), and 100° temporal (towards the temple).

3. Extraocular muscles - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extraocular_muscles

   Since only a small part of the eye called the fovea provides sharp vision, the eye must move to follow a target. Eye movements must be precise and fast. This is seen in scenarios like reading, where the reader must shift gaze constantly. Although under voluntary control, most eye movement is accomplished without conscious effort.

5. Intraocular muscles - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraocular_muscles

   The pupillary sphincter muscle and pupillary dilator muscle control the iris to adjust the size of the pupil to adjust how much light enters into the eye. The pupillary dilator muscle increases the pupillary diameter and it is arranged radially, but the pupillary sphincter muscle is responsible for the constriction of the pupil's diameter and ...

6. Tenon's capsule - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenon's_capsule

   Tenon's capsule (/ t ə ˈ n oʊ n /), also known as the Tenon capsule, fascial sheath of the eyeball (Latin: vagina bulbi) or the fascia bulbi, is a thin membrane which envelops the eyeball from the optic nerve to the corneal limbus, separating it from the orbital fat and forming a socket in which it moves.

7. Globe (human eye) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Globe_(human_eye)

   The globe of the eye, or bulbus oculi, is the frontmost sensory organ of the human ocular system, going from the cornea at the front, to the anterior part of the optic nerve at the back. More simply, the eyeball itself, as well as the ganglion cells in the retina that eventually transmit visual signals through the optic nerve.

8. Mammalian eye - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mammalian_eye

   Diagram of a human eye; note that not all eyes have the same anatomy as a human eye. The mammalian eye can also be divided into two main segments: the anterior segment and the posterior segment. [10] The human eye is not a plain sphere but is like two spheres combined, a smaller, more sharply curved one and a larger lesser curved sphere.

9. Ciliary muscle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ciliary_muscle

   The ciliary muscle is an intrinsic muscle of the eye formed as a ring of smooth muscle [3] [4] in the eye's middle layer, the uvea (vascular layer).It controls accommodation for viewing objects at varying distances and regulates the flow of aqueous humor into Schlemm's canal.
