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.
