Final answer:

The right optic nerve carries retinal fibers from both the medial and lateral sides of the retina. The left field of view of each eye is processed on the right side of the brain, and the right field of view is processed on the left side of the brain.

Step-by-step explanation:

The right optic nerve carries retinal fibers from both the medial and lateral sides of the retina.

The axons from the medial side of the retina decussate (cross over) at the optic chiasm, while the axons from the lateral side of the retina do not.

This means that the left field of view of each eye is processed on the right side of the brain, and the right field of view is processed on the left side of the brain.
