The eye has a special lens that helps you see clearly. Imagine your eye is like a camera, and the lens is like the glass in front of the camera. When you look at something close or far away, this lens changes shape to make sure the picture is sharp. If it didn’t change shape, everything would look blurry, just like when your phone screen becomes hard to read if it’s too small.
Examples
- When you read your favorite book, your eye’s lens gets thicker so the letters are clear.
- Looking at a butterfly in the garden makes your lens thinner so it stays in focus.
- Your eye works like a magnifying glass that can change shape to see everything clearly.
