Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The small region of the visual field where nothing can be seen is called the blind spot. It is the area on the retina where the optic nerve exits and there are no photoreceptor cells. When light falls on this region, no visual information can be transmitted to the brain, resulting in a temporary loss of vision.
