Optic nerve – the nerve that links eye and brain

The optic nerve carries visual information from the retina to the vision centres of the brain to enable you to see.

 

The optical nerve caries optical information to the brain

The optic was empty, his nerves and vision were shot and his brain was wasted (the optic nerve carries visual information to the brain).

 

The optical nerve carries information to be translated at the visual cortex.

Each human optic nerve contains between 770,000 and 1.7 million axons, or nerve fibres.
