In the primary visual cortex.

Information passes from the retina to the bipolar cells, these impulses travel through the optic nerve, which is made up of the axons of ganglion cells, and extend to several regions of the brain including the thalamus. The impulses are then sent further along neurones, to the primary visual cortex, where further processing of the information occurs.

The rod and cone cells of the retina convert light into impulses which is passed on to bipolar cells. These bipolar cells continue to pass the impulses to the optic nerve, which cross over the to optic nerve at the optic chiasma. The impulses move on to the thalamus where optical information is processed, forming images in the visual cortex.
