Cranial nerve pair that passes through the optic foramina?

The cranial nerve pair that passes through the optic foramina is the optic nerves, also known as cranial nerve II. These nerves transmit visual information from the retina of the eye to the brain. The optic foramina are openings in the sphenoid bone that allow the optic nerves to enter the cranial cavity, where they partially cross at the optic chiasm.

What nerves forms a cross pattern called a chiasma?

The optic nerves that connect the eye to the brain form a cross pattern called the optic chiasm or optic chiasma. This is where nerve fibers from the inner halves of each eye cross over to the opposite side of the brain. This crossing allows for certain visual information from each eye to be processed by both sides of the brain.

What cranial nerve allow you to tract with eye?

Optic nerve is the nerve which carries signal from Retina to brain.This is second cranial nerve.(First being Olfactory coming from nose.)It enters the brain through For-amen called Optic For-amen.Actually this nerve is extension of the brain tissue inside the eye.You have two parts of visual fields in retina. Temporal or outer and Nasal or medial. After optic nerve enters the brain,temporal fibers go on to the same side of Visual area situated at Occipital lobe.The fibers coming from Nasal side cross to apposite side of brain. This crossing is done at optic chiasma.there are other three nerves supply to outer eye muscles. The third cranial nerve called as Oculomotor supply to 4 eye muscles.The muscles are superior rectos, inferior rectos,medial rectos and inferior oblique.Forth cranial nerve called as Trochlear nerve supply to superior oblique muscle.Sixth cranial Abducent nerve supply to lateral rectos muscle.
