Answer 2

Answer: the answer is it enters between the lens and the retina

Explanation: When the nerve emerges from the back of the eye, it passes through the remainder of the posterior orbit (eye socket) through a structure called the lamina cribrosa that allows the nerve fibers to pass through many holes and into the extraocular (outside of the eyeball) space. As the fibers pass through, they become insulated with glial cells known as oligodendrocytes.
