Explanation

The eye is a part of the body that allows us to see. It works much like a camera, capturing light and sending information about the image to the brain. This organ is complex and made up of many parts, including the iris (the colored part), the pupil (the black center), and the lens (which focuses the light). In medicine, doctors may study and treat various conditions that can affect the eye, such as infections, injuries, or diseases like glaucoma or cataracts.
