What is the role of the optic nerve?

To supply blood to the eye

To move the eye in the socket

To carry neural impulses from the eye to the brain

The optic nerve's main role is to transmit visual information from the eye to the brain, allowing us to process and perceive images. A is incorrect because the optic nerve does not supply blood to the eye, that is the job of the ophthalmic artery. B is incorrect as the movement of the eye is controlled by muscles and not the optic nerve. D is incorrect as the shape of the lens is controlled by the muscles inside the eye, specifically the ciliary muscles, not the optic nerve.
