What part of the eye takes messages from the eye to the visual cortex?
The brain structure that relays information from the eyes to the visual cortex is called optic nerve.
Which part of the brain is visible to the outside world and is part of the eye?
The point at which the optic nerve enters the eye and forms part of the retina, it can viewed via the pupil with specialist equipment.
What part of the brain is conected to the optic nerve in your eye?
i think man its called the optica cortext yeah watched it on a documentary the other day :)
What part of the eye receives impulses from the cones and rods?
i think the hippocampus.
What part of the brain will be affected if there is something wrong with your vision?
The OPTIC NERVE, OCCIPITAL LOBE, and VISUAL CORTEX will be affected if there is something wrong with your vision. But there maybe underline issues that could cause problems with your vision as well.
What part of brain connects brain and eyes?
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.
How does the optic nerve work?
The optic nerve is a group of nerve fibers that function to provide vision. The optical never works by transferring electrical impulses to the brain from a part of the eyes known as the retina.
Can neuropathy go to the brain?
Neuropathy can affect the brain. It can damage the cranial nerves that lead out of the brain. The cranial nerves, except for cranial nerve II which is the optic nerve, are a part of the peripheral nervous system.
Which part of the eye sends messages to the brain?
The Optic Nerve
Which part of the eye transmits signals to the brain?
Optic nerve
Is there a body part that starts with an o that is not oesophagus?
optic nerve organs ovary oesophagus
What part of the eye receives the image and is connected to the brain by the optic nerve?
RETINA
What body part is the eye connected to?
By the optic nerve, which is connected to the brain. The optic nerves takes nerve signals from the retina and sends it to the brain.
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 part of the eye sends the image through an electrical impulse to the brain?
Light rays reflect off the object and into the eye where they are refracted by the cornea and focussed by the lens on to the retina, the optic nerve then carries the messages to the brain and an image is formed.
Which nerve transmits impulses generated by the retina to the brain?
Second cranial nerve: The second cranial nerve is the optic nerve, the nerve that connects the eye to the brain and carries the impulses formed by the retina -- the nerve layer that lines the back of the eye, senses light and creates the impulses -- to the brain which interprets them as images.The cranial nerves emerge from or enter the skull (the cranium), as opposed to the spinal nerves which emerge from the vertebral column. There are twelve cranial nerves.In terms of its embryonic development, the optic nerve is a part of the central nervous system (CNS) rather than a peripheral nerve.
Is the optic nerve in any way connected to the neck?
Technically everything in your body is connected, but not directly. Your optic nerve is connected to the sensory part of your brain/frontal lobe, and your neck is muscle/blood vessels/spine/nerves. The nerves are also connected to your brain, but not directly to your optic nerve.
