  • The eye is an extension of the brain but unlike the brain its neurones can be visualized through the ophthalmoscope. Many neural physiologists are involved in the study of visual processing as the eyes are easily accessible. Some of the physiologists were awarded the Nobel Prize the ultimate accolade in science for their discovery and were commemorated on stamps.
