Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The retina is the layer of tissue at the back of the eye that contains the receptor cells responsible for vision, known as rods and cones. The optic nerve carries signals from the retina to the brain for processing, but it does not contain the receptor cells themselves. The lens is responsible for focusing light onto the retina, and the optic chiasm is the point at which the optic nerves from both eyes partially cross over.
