Overview

The visual cortex is the part of the brain responsible for processing visual information, located in the occipital lobe. It receives sensory input from the eyes via the lateral geniculate nucleus and is divided into primary and extrastriate areas. Researchers like [[david-hubel|David Hubel]] and [[torsten-wiesel|Torsten Wiesel]] have made significant contributions to our understanding of the visual cortex. The visual cortex plays a crucial role in our ability to perceive and interpret visual stimuli, and its dysfunction can lead to various visual impairments.
