      akshi. [root]10, 212. Cf. {Diasy}, {Ocular}, {Optic},

      1. The organ of sight or vision. In man, and the vertebrates
            generally, it is properly the movable ball or globe in the
            orbit, but the term often includes the adjacent parts. In
            most invertebrates the years are immovable ocelli, or
            compound eyes made up of numerous ocelli. See {Ocellus}.
            Description of illustration: a b Conjunctiva; c Cornea; d
            Sclerotic; e Choroid; f Cillary Muscle; g Cillary Process;
            h Iris; i Suspensory Ligament; k Prosterior Aqueous
            Chamber between h and i; l Anterior Aqueous Chamber; m
            Crystalline Lens; n Vitreous Humor; o Retina; p Yellow
            spot; q Center of blind spot; r Artery of Retina in center
            of the Optic Nerve.
  
      Note: The essential parts of the eye are inclosed in a tough
               outer coat, the sclerotic, to which the muscles moving
               it are attached, and which in front changes into the
               transparent cornea. A little way back of cornea, the
               crystalline lens is suspended, dividing the eye into
               two unequal cavities, a smaller one in front filled
               with a watery fluid, the aqueous humor, and larger one
               behind filled with a clear jelly, the vitreous humor.
               The sclerotic is lined with a highly pigmented
               membrane, the choroid, and this is turn is lined in the
               back half of the eyeball with the nearly transparent
               retina, in which the fibers of the optic nerve ramify.
               The choroid in front is continuous with the iris, which
               has a contractile opening in the center, the pupil,
               admitting light to the lens which brings the rays to a
               focus and forms an image upon the retina, where the
               light, falling upon delicate structures called rods and
               cones, causes them to stimulate the fibres of the optic
               nerve to transmit visual impressions to the brain.
  
      2. The faculty of seeing; power or range of vision; hence,
            judgment or taste in the use of the eye, and in judging of
