Disdude 24

In Disdude 23 I brought up one last amazing function of the ocular nerve brought up originally in Disdude 21, recall? A keen reader should have seen within all those facts of my informational ramblings that never came up.

Here goes, upon initial view of our surrounding everything is upside down due to the water inside of our eyes called the aqueous humor. This liquid of inner eye nourishes the protective clear cornea out front who has no blood flow. Evolution solved this for humans by crossing visual fields at a place on either side of nasal passage called optic chiasm .

At this crossover some of the axons of retina talked about in Disdude 22 interweave with each other. This is called decussation allowing for cross channel communication. Since the right side of our brain receives information from the left and vice-versa the impulses go straight into optical channel no crossover necessary.
