Summary Introduction

To determine:

The way light passes through the glasses and into the eyes of an individual.

An organ that produces the sense of sight is the eye. The eye is composed of different types of layers: the white, outermost layer called the sclera, the layer that is interior to the sclera is called the choroid.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The reason that glasses blur the vision of an individual.

Introduction:

The muscles in the eye control the curvature of the lens to focus on objects at any distance. When a person views a faraway object, the lens is flattened and relaxed. The muscles pull the lens into a more curved shape in order to examine an article closely.
