Question: What is the white part of the eye called?

Show answer

The sclera.

The white part of the eye is called the sclera. It’s a tough, fibrous tissue that covers most of the eye’s surface and acts as protection. It is connected to the muscles which move the eye. The clear front portion of the sclera is called the cornea, which allows light to enter the eye.
