Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The optic chiasma is where the optic nerves from each eye cross, meaning that data from the right half of the retina goes to the right visual cortex and data from the left half of the retina goes to the left visual cortex. This is why each hemisphere of the brain is responsible for processing information from the opposite side of the body.
