Summary Introduction

To review:

The neural pathways associated with the retina along with the functions of the geniculostirate and tectal system.

Introduction:

The retina of the human eye is associated with the formation of the inverted image of the object from the incident light. The photoreceptor cells present in the retina are the first to be stimulated by the incident light and to transmit nerve impulses. There are various neurons associated with the transmission of nerve impulses to the brain from retina.
