yes
In some respects, this question has two answers.The retina is entirely nervous tissue, and as such is considered an extension of the brain (albiet a highly specialised extension). The retina lines the inside of the eye, and detects and responds to light.However, the other, more traditional answer is that the Visual Cortex, at the posterior (back) of the brain is responsible for making sense of the signals from the retina.
the occipital lobe, located in the back portion of the skull right above the neck
In the posterior pole of the Occipital cortex.
The three lobes of the brain contribute mainly to perception. 1) Temporal lobe contributes to hearing. 2) Occipital lobe contributes to vision. 3) Parietal lobe contributes to touch and motor perception.
The Cerebrum: The cerebrum or cortex is the largest part of the human brain, associated with higher brain function such as thought and action. The cerebral cortex is divided into four sections, called "lobes": the frontal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe, and temporal lobe.
The Occipital Lobe and the Visual Cortex.
occipital lobe!
The optic nerves connect the brain and eyes.
The occipital lobe is the part of brain associated with sight.
The Occipital Lobe
The Occipital Lobe
Occipital Lobe of the cerebral hemisphere is located in the back of the head and controls vision.
The Visual Cortex, which is located at the rear of the brain above the Cerebellum. It has a wide superficial surface area, within which is a small region that extends deep into the centre of the brain. This explains why some people who have suffered rear head injuries often have eyesight problems as a consequence.
Occipital Lobe which is situated at the very back of the brain.
Occipital lobe of the brain
brain tumors affect whatever part of the brain they are in. If they are in the occipital lobe (the part of the brain that processes vision) they will affect the vision in multiple ways depending on where in the occipital lobe they are. I have heard of blindness, inability to see color (black and white vision), and many other peculiarities in vision due to tumors in the occipital lobe.
That would be the 'Occipital Lobe' it is the visual part of the brain.
