What is the difference between the auditory nerve and optic nerve?
Auditory nerve is eighth cranial nerve. It is called as vestibulocochlear nerve. It is the nerve to meant for hearing and balancing your body. The optic nerve is second cranial nerve. It carries sensory signals from your eye to the brain. It arises from the retina of the eye.
Does the optic nerve pass through the foramen ovale?
The natural blind spot (scotoma) is due to lack of receptors (rods or cones) where the optic nerve and blood vessels leave the eye. It is where the optic nerve leaves the retina not enter it. The optic disk or blind spot is where the optic nerve leaves the eye; you cannot use that field of vision because the optic nerve is there.
Which nerve is known as eye of hand?

What is the nerve that joins eye to the brain?
The Optic nerve connects the eye to the brain.
Which nerve is called as the eye of brain?
Optic nerve
What is the function of the optic disk in the eye?
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.
What cranial nerve does not serve the muscles of the eye?

Is there an optic nerve for each eye?
The optic nerve is in the eye (optical, Optical illusions)
What is the function of the optic nerve?
As with all nerves in the human body, the optic nerve transmits information. In this case, the optic nerve specifically transmits information from the retina of the eye to the brain for analysis and integration, resulting in the perception of "sight."
Where does the optic nerve leave the eye?
The optic nerve exits the retina at the optic disc, otherwise known as the "blind spot".
What does the optic lens in a human eye do?
It processes the transmissions from the optic nerve. In laymen's terms, it connects to your eyes and lets you see.
