From the receptors to bipolar cells, then to ganglionic cells still in the retina. These then project into the optic nerves (cranial nerve II). The optic nerves then partially cross over at the optic chiasm, before reaching the thalamus, where signal processing begins. From the thalamus the optic tract leads to the visual cortex in the occipital lobe, where visual sensation is generated.

Through the optic nerve, which runs from the back of your eyes to your brain.

Nerves that transmits message from the rods and cones?

The nerves that transmit messages from the rods and cones are called optic nerves. Rods and cones are specialized cells in the retina of the eye that detect light and convert it into electrical signals. These signals are then transmitted through the optic nerves to the brain, where they are processed and interpreted as visual information.

What is anatnomy of the eye?

On the surface of the eye is the lens, and just beneath are the pupil and iris, which help filter the amount of light entering the eyes. Within the eye are nerve endings, rods and cones, that react to the light entering the eye, and send signals to the brain to interpret the signals.

How do your eyes pick up light waves?

The light travels into you eyes through the pupils. Because light is a wave it gets focused at different points on the back of your eye depending on where it came from. The energy of the wave activates rods and cones and electrical signals get sent to your brain.
