In the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye, light must pass through several layers of transparent neurons before it reaches the actual light-detecting cells. The long fibers (axons) from one of these neuron layers must then bundle together and exit the eye to carry signals to the brain. What is a direct structural consequence of this 'front-wired' design?
