SteveThe image projected onto the back of the eye, specifically on the retina, is about the size of a quarter or the tip of a pencil eraser. It is smaller than you might expect, but the brain interprets and processes this image to create our visual perception of the world around us.

Part of eye on which image is projected?
The image is projected onto the retina, which is a light-sensitive layer of tissue at the back of the eye. The retina contains photoreceptor cells that convert light signals into electrical signals, which are then transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve for processing.
The place in the back of your eye that receives images is called the?
The retina is the reflective tissue at the back of the eye on which images are projected.
What do you call the upside-down picture on the retina?
An upside-down picture on the retina is known as an inverted image. This occurs because light enters the eye and is focused by the lens onto the retina, where the image is projected in reverse before being sent to the brain for processing.
The screen on which the image in formed in the eye is called?
The screen on which the image is formed in the eye is called the retina. The retina contains special cells called photoreceptors that convert light into electrical signals, which are then sent to the brain for processing.
What part of your eye refracts light?
The retina which is where the image from the eye lens is focused. The retina is the reflective part of the eye. That's why cat's eye reflect so well, their retina are more exposed in the night because their pupils (or whatever they are in a cat) open wider than ours exposing more of that mirror at the back, the retina. Meeow!
