The optic tract is a part of the visual system in the brain. The tract starts from the optic chiasma, which receives the optic nerves from the eyes.[1]
There are two individual tracts, the left optic tract and the right optic tract. Each passes visual information only from the other side of the visual field.
Each tract develops from retinal fibers from each eye corresponding to one-half of the visual field.
