The Retina

• The retina is the light-sensitive tissue lining
  the back of our eye. Light rays are focused onto
  the retina through our cornea, pupil and lens.
• The retina converts the light rays into impulses
  that travel through the optic nerve to our brain,
  where they are interpreted as the images we see
