The Human Eye
The human eye is an organ that reacts with light and allows light perception, color vision and depth perception.

Color Vision
Using the cone cells in the retina, we perceive images in color; each type of cone specifically sees in regions of red, green, or blue.

Resolution of the Human Eye
The human eye is a sense organ that allows vision and is capable to distinguish about 10 million colors.

Nearsightedness, Farsidedness, and Vision Correction
In order for the human eye to see clearly, the image needs to be formed directly on the retina; if it is not, the image is blurry.
