Final answer:

A stroke that causes a loss of sensory/motor functions but no eye symptoms is likely affecting specific areas of the brain related to those functions.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a stroke, a disruption of blood supply to the brain occurs due to a blockage in an artery. Depending on the specific artery that is occluded, different symptoms can occur. If the arteries that are occluded cause a loss of sensory/motor functions but no eye symptoms, it is likely that the stroke has affected the areas of the brain responsible for these functions. For example, a stroke in the lateral medulla can cause a loss of the ability to swallow, and it can also affect sensory functions from the face or extremities.
