There is one optic nerve in the eye. It is also known as cranial nerve II.
People with working eyes, optic nerves and optical centers in their brains observe anything that is within their line of sight that catches their attention.
Nerves are pretty small. Consider that the human spinal cord, with its many, many nerve pathways, is under 10 mm in diameter at it widest point. Individual nerves have diameters ranging from perhaps 4 to 100 micrometers, depending on the location.

In the United States, one out of every six whites have blue eyes.

The Optic Nerve AKA Cranial Nerve II from eye to brain for sight and Craniel Nerves III (Oculomotor) and IV (Trochlear) for Eye movement.
optic chiasm?
optic tract
Anything that has Eyes and optic nerves can suffer damage to the Eyes and optic nerves, making them blind. So yeah, bloodhounds can go blind.
Your eyes cannot "fall out"; they are bound to your brain by the optic nerves and held to the skull by the musculature used to move control them.
Optic nerves
The optic nerves carry the impulses from the eyes to the visual area of the thalamus.
The right optic tract carries information from the left hand side of both eyes visual field, where-as the right optic nerve carries information solely from the right had eye. After the optic nerves from both eyes perform this partial intersection (in the optic chiasm) they then become known as the optic tract. Hope this helps.
Optic nerves can make eye pupils be big all the time. If the eye doctor told you this then it is correct.
The optic nerves carry the impulses from the eyes to the visual area of the thalamus.
optic chiasma
Through electrical impulses travelling along nerves and neurons at speeds of over 120 mph. They travel from the occipital nerves in the backs of the eyes to the occipital lobe, which is located in the back of your brain.
