  6. Why Visual ? • Visual Processing & the Brain • "Because half of the human brain is devoted directly or indirectly to vision, understanding the process of vision provides clues to understanding fundamental operations in the brain." • --Professor Mriganka Sur of MIT's Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences • 35 different areas in the brain that have been identified as being primarily or totally involved with the processing of visual information • All lobes of the cerebral cortex are involved in the processing of visualinformation • More area of the brain dedicated to vision than to all the other sense modalities combined • --Robert B. Sanet, O.D., F.C.O.V.D; IV International Congress of Behavioral Optometry
