What is the principal function of the eye-lens?

The principal function of the eye lens is to focus the light coming from an object to the retina.

Explanation

Lens or the eye-lens is a convex lens made of transparent, soft, and elastic tissues like a jelly made of proteins, that control the formation of an image on the retina. It is connected with the ciliary muscles that accommodate the eye lens, which means, it changes the shape of the lens to focus the light rays coming from near or distant objects on the retina.
