Roman women wore a stola, the female equivalent of the toga. Most had short sleeves, but some had long sleeves. The tunic worn under the stola could have long sleeves. It was fastened around the shoulders by clasps. Two belts were worm. One below was the below the breasts, which created peats, and the other was around the waist. The stola of richer women could be elaborate and a limbus could be added to it. This was a piece of material with many pleats sown to the hem of the stola. It looked like another gown worn beneath the stola and created the look of many layers. This was a symbol of wealth. The stola of poor women was a piece of material with holes for the head and the arms, tightened around the waist with a belt. Roman girls were not allowed to wear the stola until they were married. The tunic and the cloak were the main items worn by Roman girls. Girls wore a simple tunic (tunica) with a belt at the waist. When they went outside, they wore a second tunic that reached their feet. Girls wore a cloak which was used as protection from the weather, was called a paludamentum and was fastened at the shoulder with a clasp, called a fibula. The cloaks often had head coverings attached to them.
Our knowledge of the clothing worn by people in the Bible comes primarily from the Scriptures themselves, as well as from illustrations on various monuments, seals and plaques that have been found. Findings in grave and tomb remains by archaeologists have also provided direct evidence.Although there was a general similarity, in appearance and what the items were called, there were always easily-detectable differences in men and woman's clothing. The Lord (see had commanded that male and female Israelite s were to wear different forms of clothing, and made it very clear how He felt about those who did otherwise - "A woman must not wear men's clothing, nor a man wear woman's clothing, for The Lord your God detests anyone who does this." (Deuteronomy 22:5).Generally, Biblical clothing consisted of -For Men -The Inner Tunic - a long piece of plain cotton or linen cloth as an undergarment for the upper body, but sometimes reaching all the way down to the ankles. It was usually not worn when the weather was very warm.The Tunic-coat, or Ketonet - a shirt-like garment worn over the inner tunic in cool weather, or next to the body without the inner tunic when warm. It usually had long sleeves (today comes short or long sleeves) and extended down to the ankles. Today you see the children of God wearing what may look like a long dress, but in reality is a long white T-shirt some would call a nightgown today. It is the closest thing to what men wore in Jesus days. Wear only cotton next to your body and in Ecclesiastes 9:8 it tells us to only wear white garments.The Belt, or Girdle - made of leather, from 2 to 6 inches wide, sometimes with a shoulder strap when heavier articles were being carried from it.The Cloke, or Mantle - a robe worn over all of the other items of clothing as an outer garment for warmth and appearance.The Headdress - worn chiefly as a protection against the sun. The Hebrew version could, depending upon circumstances, be a cap, a turban, or a head scarf.Shoes or Sandals - shoes were made from soft leather, sandals from harder leather.For Women -The Inner Tunic - a long garment reaching all the way down to the ankles. It was usually of a finer quality cotton, linen or silk.The Outer Tunic - a full-length garment, again of finer quality than the men's version, and almost always enhanced with fine needlework and/or multicolor threads.The Belt, or Girdle - made of colorful silk or wool, sometimes with a fringe from the waist nearly to the ankles.The Cloke - warm and durable for protection against cool weather, and usually more intricate.The Headdress - a lighter and finer quality than the men's version, and always more colorful. Women also usually had elaborate plaiting or other arrangement of their hair, which tended to be long.Shoes or Sandals - shoes were made from soft leather, sandals from harder leather.

The posterior portion of the vascular tunic is called the choroid. It is a layer of blood vessels that supply nutrients and oxygen to the retina. The choroid also helps to regulate the amount of light entering the eye by absorbing excess light.
Uveitis
The choroid is the layer responsible for providing the pigmentation that forms most of the pigmented vascular tunic of the eye. It helps to absorb excess light and prevent reflection within the eye, contributing to visual acuity.
The Vascular Tunic. Formation of images on the retina include three processes: Refraction of light rays; accommodation of the lens; and constriction of the pupil. The pupil and lens are housed in the Vascular Tunic.
This isn't easy to answer because 'middle layer' is hard to pin point. From the outside front to the back, this is the order, Conjunctiva, cornea, aqueous humor, pupil (with the iris at both sides), lens, vitreous humor, retina, and then the optic nerve. The uvea is the middle vascular layer of the eye. It contains the iris, ciliary body and chorid.
The ciliary body is a structure in the vascular tunic of the eye that produces aqueous humor, which nourishes and maintains the shape of the eye. It also contains ciliary muscles that control the shape of the lens for focusing on near or distant objects. Additionally, the ciliary body is responsible for anchoring the suspensory ligaments that hold the lens in place.
The mammalian eye can be dividied into three main layers (tunics): fibrous tunic, vascular tunic, and the nervous tunic. The fibrous tunic consists of the cornea and the sclera. The vascular tunic includes the iris, ciliary body, and choroid. The nervous tunic includes the retina. rbb, MD
The iris is contained within the middle layer of the eye known as the uvea, which includes the choroid, ciliary body, and the iris. The iris is the colored part of the eye that surrounds the pupil and regulates the amount of light entering the eye by controlling the size of the pupil.
The uvea, also called the uveal layer, uveal coat, uveal tract, or vascular tunic, is the pigmented middle of the three concentric layers that make up an eye.
That's exactly what it was......a tunic. The still used the Roman style of tunic. It is called a Kirtle.
uvea is the actual vascular layer but its posteriormost part is the choroid coat. so it could be either or really. the iris is the most anterior area though
The eye contains three layers which are: the outer fibrous tunic, an intermediate vascular tunic, and an inner neural tunic (retina). The outer fibrous tunic function is to serve as the sclera and cornea. The cornea serves as a opening to the eye and helps with thefocus of light rays. The sclera protects from large and small particles and provides a connection for extrinsic muscles. The middle vascular tunic consists of three eye structures: choroid coat that helps to consumeexcess light, this is why the inside of the eye is dark and the ciliarry body which createsthe ciliary muscles and processes, and the iris which has smooth muscle controls the pupil size and also the colored part of the eye. The inner nervous tunic contains the retina andthe visual receptor cells. This portion of the eye is made of different cell types like the nerve cell.
