What is the blood vessel that sends electrical signal to the brain in your eye?

The blood vessel that sends electrical signals from the eye to the brain is not a blood vessel but rather the optic nerve.

This nerve plays a crucial role in vision, connecting the eye to the visual cortex in the brain.

Which brain region interprets the vision signal that is received by the right eye?

The visual signals from the right eye are primarily processed in the left hemisphere of the brain, specifically in the primary visual cortex (V1) located in the occipital lobe. This occurs because visual information from each eye is partially crossed at the optic chiasm, with the right visual field being processed by the left side of the brain. The left primary visual cortex then interprets and analyzes the visual information received from the right eye.
