  • In this video, Dr. Kushner talks about the occipital lobe. While the occipital lobe is the smallest of the four lobes of the cerebral cortex, it is arguably the most important region of the brain because it processes information from the eyes in order to see the world. 👀👀👀👀

      @@moacirbarbosacastro8923 it really does feel impossible to be able to put into words. However, some things that I’ve helped my family were watching CZcams videos from doctors or caretakers of people with cortical blindness. There is also a simulated photo, which I believe is on Reddit that is designed to mimic how we see. Considering my vision is so impaired, it’s hard to comment on the accuracy of that photo, but I can say that closely resembles what things look like to me. I am not completely blind, but I am nearly text blind so right now I am using dictation to type this.

    Check your understanding: What is the correct visual pathway to the brain?
    A. retina - optic nerve - thalamus (LGN) - visual cortex
    B. optic nerve - cornea - hippocampus - visual cortex
    C. retina - thalamus (LGN) - optic nerve - auditory cortex
    D. lens - optic nerve - amygdala - visual cortex
    E. retina - optic nerve - thalamus (LGN) - gustatory cortex

    Regarding prosopagnosia: you finish with the impediment being due to damage in the occipital lobe, makes more sense that it would be due to the temporal lobe or the communicitation between them since that is what enables recognition and "remembering; "have I seen this before...

    My grandpa had an occipital lobe stroke day before yesterday. Interesting. He's luckily not having trouble recognizing things or people, but fully lost vision in one eye. They're leaving the clot because it'd be more dangerous to do surgery which I didn't know they did sometimes.

    What's not being said is that if this is where our visual world takes place then everyone and everything including the universe itself is incredibly small and every single scientist, doctor, philosopher is imprisoned the same way. The world that you live in is incredibly tiny and it can never be proven otherwise
