The thalamus is responsible for relaying sensory information to the corresponding hemisphere in the brain. In this case, the information from the left half of each retina (which receives light waves) is transduced and sent to the left hemisphere via the thalamus. The iris, on the other hand, controls the size of the pupil and does not play a role in processing visual information in the brain. The corpus callosum connects the two hemispheres of the brain and does not directly process sensory information.
