Visual system

This anatomy illustration sample depicts human visual system. "The visual system is the part of the central nervous system which gives organisms the ability to process visual detail, as well as enabling the formation of several non-image photo response functions. It detects and interprets information from visible light to build a representation of the surrounding environment. ... Structure: * The eye, especially the retina * The optic nerve * The optic chiasma * The optic tract * The lateral geniculate body * The optic radiation * The visual cortex * The visual association cortex. These are divided into anterior and posterior pathways. The anterior visual pathway refers to structures involved in vision before the lateral geniculate nucleus. The posterior visual pathway refers to structures after this point." [Visual system.
