lens of eye

Elastic and transparent cell layers {lens, eye} {crystalline lens} attach to ciliary muscles that change lens shape. To become transparent, lens cells destroy all cell organelles, leaving only protein {crystallin} and outer membrane. Lens cells are all the same. They align and interlock [Weale, 1978]. Lens shape accommodates when objects are less than four feet away. Lens maximum magnification is 15.
