What sends the message to the brain from the eye and what part of a brain?

The retina in the eye converts light into electrical signals, which are then transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve. These signals are primarily processed in the primary visual cortex, located in the occipital lobe of the brain. Additional areas, such as the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) of the thalamus, also play a crucial role in visual processing before the information reaches the visual cortex.
