Diagram of the optic nerve

Caption

Light enters the front of the eye and reaches the retina. Photoreceptors at the back of the retina convert light into signals and sends them to bipolar and retinal ganglion cells. Axons from retinal ganglion cells form the optic nerve, which carries signals from the eye to regions of the brain that process vision.
