Protection The eye is protected by the orbital socket of the skull, eyelids, the eyebrows and eye lashes The protective membrane over the eye is the conjunctiva When we blink, the eyes are constantly bathed in fluid secreted by the lacrimal glands. The tears contain lysozymes which help combat bacterial infections The eye is made of up 3 layers: Sclera, choroid and retina 3.03 Remember the structures of the sensory system
