What is the function of vitreous humour in the human eye?

Open in App

Solution

The vitreous humor comprises a large portion of the eyeball. It is a clear gel-like substance that occupies the space behind the lens and in front of the retina at the back of the eye. Because the eye must process visual data, this liquid must be clear enough for light to easily pass through it.
