The optic chiasm and the corpus callosum: their relationship to binocular vision in humans.

The semidecussation of the optic nerve fibers in humans serves to facilitate the motor coordination of the two eyes. The Corpus Callosum in humans serves to facilitate the integration of stimuli from opposite cerebral hemispheres. Stereopsis and motor fusion are two distinct and separate qualities of binocular vision, and each alone can indicate central and/or peripheral binocular vision. Stereopsis is not an indicator for binocular stability.

Binocular vision.

Sensory correspondence, which forms the foundation for binocular vision, is a central activity of the cortex at the perceptual level and can occur with or without an anatomic proximity of corresponding points on the same cerebral hemisphere. Dysjunctive eye movement (fusional movements) can occur only with an anatomic proximity of corresponding points on the same cerebral hemisphere.
