Solution

The correct option is B Muscles surronding the lens
The choroid, also known as the musculus tensor choroidea is the vascular layer of the eye, containing connective tissues, and lying between the retina and the sclera. The human choroid is thickest at the far extreme rear of the eye, while in the outlying areas it narrows to 0.1 mm. It provides oxygen and nourishment to the outer layer of the retina.
So, option B is the correct option.
