Lesions in that pathway cause a variety of visual field defects. In the visual system of human eye, the visual information processed by retinal photoreceptor...

Visual or vision impairment (VI or VIP) is the partial or total inability of visual perception. In the absence of treatment such as corrective eyewear...

The visual system is the physiological basis of visual perception (the ability to detect and process light). The system detects, transduces and interprets...
