Wondering how the human eye works? Read this article to learn all about the complete makeup of the eye, including the cornea, retina, macula and pupil.
The anterior border layer is modified from the stroma layer and contains an increased number of fibroblasts and underlying melanocytes. It blends with the double epithelial layer covering the posterior surface of the iris at the pupillary rim, and with the trabecular connective tissue of the irido...

The sphincter pupillae (circular fibers) and dilator pupillae (longitudinal fibers) form the muscular components of the iris that alters the size of the pupil (central aperture of the eye) according to the amount of light the eye is exposed to. The increased light intensity is passed on to...
