what happens when light hits the lens of the eye?
it is reflected back out it changes the light’s color
it focuses the light onto the retina it is absorbed by the retina
The eye's lens is a transparent, flexible structure whose primary function is to refract (bend) incoming light to focus it precisely onto the retina, the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye that converts light signals to neural signals. Reflection of light out of the eye is not the lens's role, the lens does not alter light color, and light absorption by the retina occurs after the lens focuses the light.
