posterior segment
Anterior, Posterior, and Vitreous Chambers of the Eye
conjunctiva
a condition of increased pressure within the eyeball, causing gradual loss of sight.
Myopia is characterised by a slight elongation of the eyeball, causing the image to fall in front of the retina, while hypermetropia is characterised by a slight shortening of the eyeball, causing the image to fall a little behind the retina. In both cases, blur circles are formed instead of image points leading to blurring of the overall image.

vitreous humorA clear gel called vitreous humor (vitre = glassy) that binds tremendous amounts of water. It's functions are to:transmit lightsupport the posterior surface of the lenshold the neural retina firmly against the pigmented layercontribute to intraocular pressure to counteract the extrinsic eye muscles(taken right out of my A&P textbook)** Added by m5fanatic **Glad you could copy your text book, but the question asks about the posterior CAVITY of the eye, not the eyeball itself. Posterior to the eye is mucous membranes, the ocular muscles, etc.Aqueous HumorThe Vitreous humor in the posterior cavity behind the lens.Liquid Humerus
I had the Eyeball script... But then Ben came...
