The structures or substances that light passes through from the cornea to the retina include:

1. Aqueous humor: This is the watery substance found in the anterior chamber of the eye that helps to maintain the intraocular pressure and provide nutrients to the cornea and lens.

2. Iris: The colored part of the eye that controls the size of the pupil, which regulates the amount of light entering the eye.

3. Lens: The transparent structure behind the iris that focuses light onto the retina.

4. Vitreous humor: The gel-like substance that fills the larger chamber behind the lens and helps to maintain the shape of the eye.

5. Retina: The light-sensitive tissue lining the back of the eye that contains photoreceptor cells (rods and cones) that convert light into electrical signals.

6. Macula: The central part of the retina responsible for central vision and fine detail.

7. Optic nerve: The bundle of nerve fibers that carries visual information from the retina to the brain for processing.
