Description Dorsal LGN relay neurons are those that receive input from RGCs and project to the visual cortices, almost exclusively to area V1. The receptive field properties of these relay neurons are similar to those of the RGCs that supply their afferent input, although the surround properties of dLGN relay neurons are generally stronger. Early in development, there are imprecisions in the anatomic and physiologic matching of retinal inputs and geniculate relay neurons.
