Ciliary body
Ciliary body. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a section of the eye, showing the ciliary body and iris. The ciliary body (orange, lower left) forms a ring between the iris (green, upper right) and the choroid (the inner surface of the eyeball). The ciliary body joins to ligaments that hold the lens in place behind the iris. The ciliary body also contains the ciliary muscle that is contracted to alter the curvature of the lens and focus light on the retina

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of the ciliary body, a vital component of our visual system. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are granted an up-close view of a section of the eye, where the ciliary body takes center stage. Coloured in vibrant orange and situated at the lower left corner, the ciliary body forms a remarkable ring between two other prominent structures: the iris and the choroid. The iris, depicted in lush green hues at the upper right corner, is responsible for regulating light entering our eyes through its adjustable aperture. What makes this image even more fascinating is that it reveals how these anatomical elements work together seamlessly to ensure optimal vision. The ciliary body not only acts as a support structure but also houses an essential muscle known as the ciliary muscle. This muscle contracts or relaxes to modify lens curvature, enabling us to focus on objects at varying distances. As we delve deeper into understanding ocular anatomy through this SEM masterpiece by Science Photo Library, we gain insight into how our eyes function with precision and efficiency. It serves as a reminder of both nature's complexity and its ability to create wonders that allow us to perceive and appreciate all that surrounds us visually.
