| 1. | Retinal sensors send signals through the optic tract to the Lateral geniculate nucleus.
|
| 2. | These axons form the optic nerve, optic chiasm, and optic tract.
|
| 3. | Posterior lesions may also involve the optic tract and cause a contralateral homonymous hemianopia.
|
| 4. | :Parts of hypothalamus are bounded by the third ventricle, optic tracts, and cerebral peduncles.
|
| 5. | The two optic tracts, representing the right and left visual fields, emerge posteriorly from the posterior chiasm.
|
| 6. | There, partial decussation occurs, and about 53 % of the fibers cross to form the optic tracts.
|
| 7. | It also projects to the superior colliculus, the suprachiasmatic nucleus, and the nucleus of the optic tract.
|
| 8. | Then he checked for visual disturbances _ signs that the probe was too close to the optic tract.
|
| 9. | In more specific terms, the optic tract contains fibers from the ipsilateral temporal hemiretina and contralateral nasal hemiretina.
|
| 10. | Nuclei of the optic tract are involved in smooth pursuit eye movement and the accommodation reflex, as well as REM.
