In binocular vision the visual field (40) is projected upon

portions of both retinae (blue and red in the drawing). In

the chiasma the fibers from the two retinal portions are

combined to form the left optic tract. The fibers of the two

eyes remain separated from each other throughout the entire visual pathway up to their final termination in the calcarine cortex (21). Injuries on the optic pathway produce

visual defects whose nature depends on the location of

the injury. Destruction of one optic nerve (A) produces

blindness in the corresponding eye with loss of pupillary

light reflex. If lesions of the chiasma destroy the crossing

fibers of the nasal portions of the retina (B), both temporal

fields of vision are lost (bitemporal hemianopsia). If

both lateral angles of the chiasma are compressed (C), the

nondecussating fibers from the temporal retinae are

affected, resulting in loss of nasal visual fields (binasal

hemianopsia). Lesions posterior to the chiasma (D) (i.e.,

optic tract, lateral geniculate body, optic radiation, or

visual cortex) result in a loss of the entire opposite field of

vision (homonymous hemianopsia).
