Psychology 1xx3 notes vision ii february 21, 2015. H e m i sphe r e s. Brain: place where visual perception all comes together is the brain. Visu a l s y stem: we cab think of the visual system as being comprised of a set of assembly lines. Areas along the visual pathways process parts of the visual input before sending those partially- processed bits of information on to the next set of areas down the line for further processing. H e m i sphe a l f ields. Recall that the right and left halves of our visual field are actually processed by the contralateral side of our brain. Visual input from our right visual field travels along the optic nerve to the left hemisphere and visual input from the left visual field travels along the optic nerve to the right hemisphere.
