About the visual system flashcards
GoConqr OriginalUsing the visual system flashcards
These decks offer short prompts on topics across the unit. Visual Neuroscience starts with questions about the perceptual process and stimuli, making it a useful first deck if you want to revisit those terms. Vision asks about neural cells in the eye and the retinal layers.
For pathway terminology, Visual Pathway includes prompts on retinotopic mapping, while Visual processing covers the lateral geniculate nucleus and visual cortex. Other decks focus on spatial vision, eye movements and visual agnosias.
Make recall part of revision
Work through a deck by answering each prompt before checking the card. Return to terms you find difficult, then try a related deck to practise them in a different context. If you need to see how topics connect, switch to a mind map on the unit page; a quiz can give you a different way to check recall.

Frequently asked questions
Which flashcard deck is a good place to start?
Visual Neuroscience is a useful starting point for revisiting the perceptual process and different kinds of stimulus. For questions focused on the eye, Vision covers neural cells and retinal layers. The right starting point depends on which part of the unit you want to practise.
What topics do the flashcards cover?
The decks cover perception, visual pathways, spatial vision, eye movements and visual disorders. For example, Visual processing includes terms from the visual cortex, while Visual Agnosias asks about types of agnosia and what is intact or impaired in visual agnosia.
Are these flashcards free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed on this page is free to open and study without an account. The flashcards were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr. A free account also lets you make your own flashcards, quizzes, mind maps and notes, and save quiz scores.
