Optic nerve is developmentally derived from an outpouching of diencephalon leaving the cranial cavity through the optic canal. The most anterior portion of the optic nerve called the optic disc is directly visible through the eye. With modern techniques, the integrity of the optic nerve fibers can be visualized, and the structure and function of the nerve fiber layer can be precisely quantified.
