human being was created by God. To better understand this proof, let us now
take a closer look at the eye's components. Once again, we'll see the theory of
so-called evolution's helplessness in trying to explain away the eye's form
and function.

Eyelids
The eyes are the body's windows to the outside world. With the help of a
specialized system, these windows' protection and maintenance are perfectly
maintained. Eyelids, the most important part of this system, undertake the
double function of protecting the eyeball from harmful contacts, and also
keeping the cornea (the transparent membrane covering the front of the
pupil) and the conjunctiva (the delicate mucous membrane lining the eyelid's
inner surface), both at a constant moisture level. During sleep, when the eyes'
surfaces are not exposed directly to the air, veins on the conjunctival layer in-
side the eyelid feed needed oxygen onto the eyeball.

duce tears, and also secrete a lubricant that covers the eyelashes, allow-
ing them to curl upwards, broaden the visual perspective and become
aesthetically attractive.
Did the eyelashes or eyelid get the idea to secrete such an oil? Of course
not! Every aspect of the eye was designed by the Lord of everything, God.
