Nerve impulses do not carry information, they only carry impulses. It is the brain and spinal cord that interpret that impulse into information.

How do eye cells communicate with muscle cells?

The eye cells transmit nerve impulses to the brain, which translates the signal and transmits nerve impulses to the muscles. Information from sensory organs, including the eyes, ears, tongue, and skin, are transmitted by nerve impulses directly to the brain. The brain acting as the control center of the body interprets the nerve impulses. It then sends out different nerve impulses to other cells of the body if a response to the sensory signals is needed.
