What is the main function of the Occipital lobe?
The occipital lobe processes visual information in the brain. The peristriate region of the occipital lobe discriminates between colors and processes movement. The visual cortex (outermost portion of the occipital lobe) is divided into 5 distinct layers (V1 to V5), and each layer discerns and processes a different type of visual characteristic, all integrated together to generate visual perception.
Can you define Ipsilateral in the context of the central nervous system?
Ipsilateral means on the same side of the body, so the right ear and right eye are ipsilateral. For the central nervous system, an example would be that the right frontal lobe and the right occipital lobe are ipsilateral.
Does the left side of your brain control your vision?
No, both hemispheres of the brain, left and right, control vision. The occipital lobe is located at the back of the brain.
What side of the brain is the occipital lobe located?
The occipital lobe is in the rear part of the brain (dorsal to the body), and "decodes" and maps visual sensory input. It contains the visual cortex, which is separated into five layers of neural tissue, each "decoding" a different visual characteristic to allow for sight.
If suffering a serious brain injury wish side of your brain effects your eyesight?

Four lobes of the cortex?
The lobes of the brain correlate well with the bones of the skull cap. The frontal lobe is directly below the frontal bone. The parietal lobes (paired) are beneath the parietal bones (paired). At the back of the head is the occipital lobe situated below the occipital bone. And lastly, deep to the ears are the temporal lobes (paired) located underneath the temporal bones (paired).

What does affected side mean?
The right side of your brain processes and controls the left side of your body and senses, and the left does the same for the right. If you have a stroke, or trauma, to the right side of your brain then your left side of your body will be the affected side. The same for the left side of your brain. Damage to the left affects the right side. This is true even with something like vision. The left halves of each individual eye's visual field is processed by the right side of your occipital lobe, and the right by the left.
Which lobe effects motor function of right side?
The left frontal lobe.
