Sensory impulses from the retina begin their journey when light is converted into electrical signals by photoreceptor cells (rods and cones). These signals are then transmitted through the retinal ganglion cells, forming the optic nerve. The optic nerve carries the impulses to the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) of the thalamus, where they are processed and relayed. Finally, the signals travel to the occipital lobe of the brain, where visual perception occurs.
It receives its afferent light impulses from the retina and occipital cortex.it gives efferents to the Edinger-Westphal nuclei of both sides.
The retinais strictly sensory.
The sensory receptors for the eyes are the optic nerve and the retina. The sensory receptor for the nose are the olfactory nerves.
The organ of vision is the retina of the eye. The sensory receptors are called photoreceptors. When photoreceptors are stimulated, impulses travel within the optic nerve (CN II) to the visual (occipital) cortex of the brain for interpretation. There are two types of photoreceptors: Cones are photoreceptors for color vision and produce sharp images while the Rods are photoreceptors for night vision and produce silhouettes of images.

Sensory information from the eyes is carried to the brain by the optic nerve, which is composed of ganglion cell axons. These fibers transmit visual signals from the retina, where light is converted into neural impulses, to the visual cortex in the brain for processing.

I am pretty sure it is the retina.The retina not only is used for focusing but also The sides of the ''retina'' are responsible for our peripheral vision. The center area, called the macula, is ''used'' for our fine central vision and color vision. Are you referring to optical nerve impulses?
The three structures involved in vision are the cornea, which helps focus light onto the retina; the lens, which further refines the focus of light onto the retina; and the retina, which contains photoreceptor cells that convert light signals into electrical impulses for processing by the brain.
