visual systems

The visual system is the body's way of perceiving the world through sight. It starts with the eyes, which detect light and color, converting these into electrical signals. These signals travel via the optic nerves to the brain, primarily the visual cortex, where they are processed to interpret shapes, depth, movement, and brightness. This complex system allows us to recognize objects, read, and navigate our environment. It involves multiple parts working together seamlessly to produce the detailed and dynamic image of the world that we experience visually.
