Aqueous humour fills the space immediately behind the cornea and keeps it in shape and vitreous humour, a transparent jelly-like substance, fills the space behind the lens allowing light rays to pass through to the retina.

The cochlea is responsible for hearing. The vestibule detects linear acceleration of the head. The semicircular canals sense the rotation of the head. Vision rely on photoreceptor cells within the retina of the eye that detect light and colors. The eyes are protected by the bones of the orbits, the eyelids, the tarsal glands, and the lacrimal apparatus.

Eye disorders involve symptoms like blurred vision and eye pain, requiring collaborative care and preventive measures. Ear disorders involve symptoms like otorrhea and hearing loss, with risk factors including infections and allergies, and treatments involving medication and holistic care by nurses.

(An interesting fact is that when you are listening to someone speaking your eardrum vibrates at exactly the same rate as the vocal cords of the person speaking to you). The vibration of the eardrum sets the three tiny bones in the middle ear moving against each other so that the vibration is transferred to the membrane covering the opening to the inner ear.
