The optic nerve is a bundle of tissue that transmits the signals generated from the eye to the brain. In essence, the optical nerve is the connection between the eye and the brain. It consists of a grouping of over one million nerve fibers, although the tissue of the optic nerve is actually more closely related to brain tissue than to nerve tissue - hope its good enough ^.^ c": c(:
it carries visual information from the eye to the brain
it transmits the things being seen into the brain to be processed.
It connects your cornea to brain. And tells the brain what to see.
To convey the Vision Impulses to the Brain
When images enter your eye they are upside down and backwards, but your optic nerve turns it right side up and forward.
The optic nerve carries tiny electrical signals from the retina, where they are
generated by light, to the brain, where they are processed and interpreted to
mean something.
two lovley cells types in your retina, receive the light focused through the lense in your eye, and convert the light into two signals. Color, and shape, or something like that. they then traver down the optical nerve to opposite sides of your vision center. as in, the left eye's nerve goes the the right side of the vision center in your brain. you brain then unscrambles the signal into better-than- HD images for your veiwing pleasure. Exuse my strange explanation.
First you must understand how light is transferred into an image by the eye. Located in the retina at the back of the eye are millions of photoreceptors. The way I understand them to work is they are constantly blocking any impules from themselves to the next connection, ganglions. When light hits these potoreceptors, the impulse is released, travels through the ganglion, and then is transmitted to the actual optic nerve. So according to this question, the photoreceptors are the trigger of light to impulse, but the answer to your question is the ganglion that transmitts the impulse to the optic nerve.

The Optic Nerve
That laser light really did damage my optic nerve.
the optic nerve
The optic nerve carries signals (images) from the retina to the brain.
Optic nerve. Well, it connects the retina to the brain. The muscles of the eye also connect to the brain, but not through the optic nerve.
Optic disc:The optic disc is also called the blind spot. There are no receptors in this part of the retina. This is where all of the axons of the ganglion cells(last neurons before optic nerve) exit the retina to form the optic nerve.
from the back of the eye to the brain.
The optic nerve is in the eye (optical, Optical illusions)
The optic nerve exits the retina at the optic disc, otherwise known as the "blind spot".
That should be the shutter.
your optic nerve attatches your eye and brain together
