The ventral view of the brain. From this view you can see the chiasm. By convention the optic nerve is the fiber form eyeball to chiasm, the fiber arise from ganglion cells in the retina. From chiasm to its end in the lateral geniculate is called optic tract.
Step3

The temporal view of the brain. From this angle you can see there is a separate line between the OB and the rest of the forebrain. Cut here vertically to separate the bulbs. Typical weights of adult OB are --- mg (bilateral fixed and ---- mg fresh)
Step4
