Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
The lens is responsible for focusing the light on the retina, which is at the back of the eye. The cornea and the iris are also involved in the process of focusing light, but they do not play the primary role. The pupil controls the amount of light entering the eye, but it does not focus the light.
