- (B) Information from the eyes’ retinas crosses at the optic chiasm. Each eye sends information to
both hemispheres of the brain. Information from the left side of each retina goes to the left
hemisphere of the brain, and information from the right side of each retina goes to the right side of
the brain. The information is traveling via the optic nerve. The fovea is the part of the retina that
has the highest visual acuity. The lateral geniculate nucleus is the part of the thalamus where initial
visual processing takes place. The basal ganglia are a group of nuclei that help coordinate different
parts of the brain.
