The Eyes Have Them is a phrase that refers to the various components of the eye. Uveas (5 letters) is a layer of tissue in the eye that contains blood vessels and helps to protect the eye from infection. Iris (6 letters) is the colored part of the eye that helps to control the amount of light entering the eye. LIDS (4 letters) are the eyelids that help to protect the eye from dust and other particles. Pupils (6 letters) are the black circles in the center of the iris that control the amount of light entering the eye. Together, these components of the eye work together to help us see.
