In this lecture, Professor Diamond continues with the cerebral lobes and covers a variety of illnesses that occur in the cerebral lobes including neglect syndrome, Wernicke's Syndrome, and hallucinations. She also spends time on the temporal lobe, the occipital lobe, and the insula, its components and how it affects the body. Then she moves on to the composition, function and location of the eye and its constituents. She briefly covers the development and the visual pathway of the eye, showing how vision is transferred and translated to the brain. Then she focuses on specific components of the eye including the optic nerve, optic chiasma, optic tract and the coats of the eye (uvea, sclera, cornea). Finally Professor Diamond diagrams the detailed structure of the lens and its location, composition, and function. She draws the visual pathway noting each of the anatomical areas that plays a role. In conclusion she explains what happens when someone has glaucoma and what is done to cure it.
