Visual Information

Data received and processed about the surrounding environment through the sense of sight, contributing to perception and awareness.

Optic Nerve

The optic nerve is a crucial part of the eye and the visual system, responsible for transmitting visual information from the retina to the brain.

Bipolar Cells

Type of neuron in the retina that serves as an intermediate layer between photoreceptors and ganglion cells, playing a role in visual processing.
