the lens is held vertically in the eye's interior by suspensory ligaments or more specifically called the ciliary zonule, attached to the ciliary body.
so suspensory ligaments is the answer(-:

∙ 13y agoThis is two different questions: The Ciliary Body extends from the Choroid Coat and contains the Ciliary Muscles and the Ciliary Processes. However, it is the Suspensory Ligaments, which extend from the Ciliary Processes, that control the shape of the Lens.

∙ 15y agoThe ciliary muscles and suspensory ligaments, along with the structure of the lens itself, enable the lens to adjust shape to facilitate focusing, a phenomenon called accommodation.

How does ciliary muscle change the shape of the lens?
its a muscle
What modification of the choroid that controls the shape crystalline lens?
ciliary bodyciliary body
What is effect of contraction and relaxation of the ciliary muscle?
change in shape of lens.
What type of lens is the lens of your eye?
The lens in the human eye is a convex lens, but it is flexible and when it is acted on by the ciliary muscle around it, the lens can be "flattened" to change the focus, or, when the muscle is relaxed, the lens can assume a more spherical shape. This is at the heart of the ability of the eye to focus on objects nearer or farther away.
What controlls the shape of the lens?
The ciliary muscle, part of the retina of the eye, changes the focal length of the lens by flattening it or making it more spherical.
What happens to the shape of cilia muscles when they relax?
When the ciliary muscle is relaxed, the choroid acts like a spring pulling on the lens via the zonule fibers causing the lens to become flat.
What muscle is responsible for eye accommodation of near and distal vision?
The ciliary muscle is responsible for eye accommodation for near and far vision. It accomplishes this task by changing the shape of the lens.
What shape is a lens?
a shape of a lens is curved outwards and concave one are curved in wards
What lens is a converging lens double-convex spherical-convex plano-concave or convexo-concave lens?
A converging lens is also known as a magnifying lens. The shape of the lens is a double convex shape.
What is the shape of the lens controlled by?
the iris!!! iris is the coloured part of your eye,and its a muscle that controls your pupil(the black dot) to let how much light you're eye needs. The iris regulates the amount of light by controlling the size of the pupil.
What lens function controls the amount of light that will exit the lens and expose the sensor?
SHUTTER in Camera controls the amount and time of light that the Sensor will exposed to.
How the lens change it shape when foucsing on near objects?
the lens of our eyes is different to the lens of a magnifying glass-it can change its shape from thick to thin
