Brihadaranyaka Upanishad 4.2.3

'Now that which in the shape of a person is in the right eye, is his wife, Virag. Their meeting-place is the ether within the heart, and their food the red lump within the heart. Again, their covering is that which is like net-work within the heart, and the road on which they move (from sleep to waking) is the artery that rises upwards from the heart. Like a hair divided into a thousand parts, so are the veins of it, which are called Hita, placed firmly within the heart. Through these indeed that (food) flows on flowing, and he (the Taigasa) receives as it were purer food than the corporeal Self (the Vaisvanara).

In plain words: Yagnavalkya says the figure in the right eye is Indra's wife, Viraj. They meet in the space inside the heart and are fed there. They travel along a channel rising up from the heart. Tiny veins called Hita, finer than a hair split a thousand ways, carry finer food to the inner self (the Taigasa).
