Okay, haha, I guess no one knows.
.__.
My guess is it’s tissue that expands and contracts around the iris.
I think it is a close up of a rectum not an eyeball.
That looks like an iris to me.
I think the iris is basically a muscle so those ridges could be striations, but IIRC, only voluntary muscles have striations and I think the iris is an involuntary muscle.
The above is just a guess on my part.
I think it’s a normal iris. Here is another image I found on Google. I’m guessing that the image you posted is a scanning electron micrograph, and thus is way more detailed than a standard close-up of the iris.
just wanted to say…awesome image!!!

@nebule: Haha, I wish I had blue eyes! Although, my mum says that they would make me look weird with my darker skin… xD
