Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
“The transparent component of the eye that covers the front of the eye is called the cornea”.
The cornea is the most transparent layer of the eye present in the front portion of the eye. The cornea's main function is to refract the light entering the eyes. The cornea accounts for most of the eyes' focusing function and optical power. The cornea serves as a structural barrier and guards the eye against infections. It is a clear, avascular tissue.  It gives the eye an appropriate anterior refractive surface and tears film. Two-thirds of the eye's refractive power comes from the cornea.
