What is the function of the Human Visual System in processing light?
What is the function of the Human Visual System in processing light?
- Light doesn't require processing by any system before going to the brain
- Light is absorbed by the optic nerves directly
- Light passes through lens, focused on retina, goes to the brain for processing (correct)
- Light gets processed by the optic nerves before reaching the retina
