Document Summary
In terms of primary visual pathway, projections from right/left visual field onto retina of each eye: that information is separated at the optic chiasm. In the lgn, although you have all the information from left visual field goes to right lgn, the information is still separate (not. One eye can see both visual fields. Lose bit of periphery on one side, still be able to see both visual fields. Losing peripheral visual field, maps onto the nasal fibres. Lose vision in your right eye: cut right at the optic chiasm. Will only have the periphery; overlap doesn"t exist. Lecture 15: the visual system higher visual processing: cut at the right visual field optic tract (after optic chiasm) Will lose the left visual field (right part of retina, sees left visual field) Where the primary visual cortex sits: discrete layers (for various inputs and outputs) Subject to a lot of research for functionality. Occupies most of the caudal occipital lobe.
