Overview of the Centrifugal Visual System in Mammalian Species | Chapter 9 | Highlights on Medicine and Medical Science Vol. 1

 It is well known that the retina and the central nervous system have a bidirectional neural connection. The classical visual system and the retinohypothalamic tract make up the retinofugal link. There are various subsystems that make up the retinopetal linkages. The centrifugal visual system refers to a group of routes that originate from various parts of the central nervous system. The structures that give rise to the centrifugal visual system The forebrain and brainstem are where they're found. Through the optic nerve, centrifugal visual fibers penetrate the retina's optic nerve layer. Some fibers reach the ganglion cells and end there. Others enter the inner nuclear layer via the inner plexiform layer and end up on the amacrine and displaced ganglion cells. The cells of origin of the centrifugal visual system were shown to contain several neuropeptides and neurotransmitters. The subsystems serve quite varied purposes. It is very dependent on the structure from which the fibers originate.
