What is the shape of the eyeball?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answeris option 1 i.e. Spherical.

  • Although slightly elongated from front to back, the human eyeball is roughly spherical and resembles a ball.
  • Clear vision is made possible by the proper focus of light entering the eye onto the retina at the back thanks to its spherical shape.
  • While the spherical shape preserves the structural integrity and correct alignment of the eye's components, the cornea and lens' curvature also plays a critical role in focusing light.
