Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The fovea is the area at the center of the retina where visual acuity is highest. By moving the page to focus the blurry word, you have likely moved the word onto your fovea, allowing you to see it most clearly. The optic nerve carries visual information from the eye to the brain, the stapes is a small bone in the middle ear, and the iris controls the size of the pupil to regulate the amount of light entering the eye. None of these options is specifically related to focusing a word onto the fovea.
