Impulse transmission sequence in the eye
Impulse transmission sequence in the eye
Light signals are converted into nerve impulses that travel from photoreceptor cells (cones and rods) to bipolar cells, then to ganglion cells, forming the optic nerve. This is the fundamental pathway for vision.
Extraocular muscle innervation
Extraocular muscle innervation
The oculomotor nerve (N.oculomotorius) controls most of the eye's movement muscles.
