• Optic Nerve: Group of nerve cells that transfer visual information from the retina to the vision centers of the brain via electrical impulses.

• Blind spot: Our blind spot is caused by the absence of specialized photosensitive cells, or photoreceptors, in the part of the retina where the optic nerve exits the eye.
