A relay station in the thalamus that sorts information for the visual cortex. IV. Cortical Processing: Constructing Reality Perception is finalized in the brain’s occipital lobe.

Compress and process signals before they leave the eye. The Eye. The Physiology of Human Perception

Light strikes pigments (like rhodopsin), triggering a chemical change that creates an electrical impulse. A relay station in the thalamus that sorts

The iris acts as a diaphragm, adjusting the pupil size to regulate light entry. evolutionary biology) Detects basic edges

(e.g., color blindness, corrective surgery, evolutionary biology)

Detects basic edges, orientations, and basic motion.

The tiny central pit of the retina providing the sharpest detail. III. Neural Transmission and The Visual Pathway
