Hi all,

I had a student ask me a question in class the other night regarding
split-brain patients.  Does visual information go to both hemispheres? 
>From pictures, it looks as though information coming into your right
visual field splits and goes to both the right and left hemisphere and
vice versa for the information coming into your left visual field.  I
understand that the information still crosses by way of the optic nerve,
but it seems as though from pictures that the visual information goes to
both hemispheres, although that is not the way it is explained.

Thank you,
Nina
