The left half of each retina projects information to the right hemisphere of the brain due to contralateral control. This is why damage to the right hemisphere can affect vision in the left visual field, and vice versa. The pupil, on the other hand, is simply the opening in the center of the iris that allows light to enter the eye and does not play a role in the processing of visual information. The concept of split brain refers to individuals who have had their corpus callosum, the band of fibers connecting the two hemispheres, severed, resulting in the inability of the hemispheres to communicate with each other.
