Question: Is the human eye able to absorb vitamins and other nutrients directly from a solution?
As in title; Can the human eye absorb important vitamins directly from a solution - eg. eye drops - and if so, which part of the eye is in charge of such a procedure.

Answers:

The eyes can't absorb vitamins from an external source like that.

Vitamins reach the eyes through the blood stream just like any other part of the body. Blood vessels in the retina bring the vitamins the eyes need from your normal diet.

Nothing but corrective lenses or surgery will improve vision. In order to improve vision through eating carrots you would have to eat a bushel of carrots every day for about 10 years and then be lucky to see even a minuscule change.

There is no scientific proof that eye exercises, eye vitamins or eating foods high in beta-carotene (carrots) or lutein will improve visual acuity. Numerous studies have been conducted and continue to be conducted on this subject and to date all results are inconclusive. If there were any real proof that any natural remedy could improve vision, believe me eye docs would not be able to suppress the information from the public. Anyone who says different is putting those that need corrective lenses or who have optical disease or problems at risk. Listening to quacks is dangerous to your health. Certain vitamin deficiencies can cause eye problems, but this usually occurs in poor countries where people are malnourished or because an individual's system cannot process the vitamin(s).

Eye drops are topical and not actually absorbed into the eye. Most eye problems requiring eye drops relate to sclera or outer layer of the eye ball. Probably some eye doc will give you a better explanation, but that's as close as I can get.
