The sensory homunculus is a representation of the body's sensory receptor density within the brain, with larger areas dedicated to regions that have more receptors. While fingers, lips, and hands are highly represented on the sensory homunculus, eyes are not. This is because the visual system has its own dedicated area in the brain, known as the visual cortex, which is separate from the somatosensory cortex where the sensory homunculus is located.
