What causes the blind spot and why do you generally not notice it?
The blind spot, or scotoma, is caused by the absence of photoreceptors (rods and cones) in the area of the retina where the optic nerve exits the eye. This results in a small region where no visual information is detected. Generally, people do not notice the blind spot because the brain fills in the missing information based on surrounding visual cues and the input from the other eye, creating a seamless perception of the visual field. Additionally, the blind spot is located in the periphery of our vision, where we are less likely to focus directly.
What causes your blind spot?
At the small spot in each eye where the optic nerve exits the eye, they are no light receptors and therefore no vision. The blind spots are to the outer sides of the field of vision and therefore less critical than if they were close to the center. Also, the blind spot in each eye is compensated for by the other eye for those who have two intact eyes.
How many receptors does the blind spot have?
The "blind spot" is the point at which the optic nerve leaves the eye. Think of it as a cable attached to the back of the eye, carrying all your visual information to the brain. As a result, there are no receptors at the "blind spot".
Why can the spot on the retina that has no rods and cones be called the blind spot?
The blind spot on the retina lacks light-sensitive cells (rods and cones), causing it to be unable to detect light and form images. This creates an area where the brain doesn't receive visual information, making it a literal "blind spot" in our field of vision.
Why do human eyes have a blind spot?

What happens if light rays are focused directly on the blind spot?
If light rays are focused directly on the blind spot in the eye, those particular light rays would not be detected by the retina because the blind spot is the area on the retina where the optic nerve exits and there are no light-sensitive cells present. This would result in a gap in the visual field where those light rays are not perceived.
What is scoptoma?
It's a phenomenon when the eyes see what the mind believes. Evidently, "scoptoma" is a misuse of the word "scotoma," a word used in medicine for a condition that causes visual blind spots, and in psychology to describe a mental blind spot -- the inability to understand or perceive some matters. There is no linguistic authority, such as a reputable dictionary, medical or otherwise, that identifies or defines the word "scoptoma."
Why can't you see an image hitting the blind spot?
The blind spot is the point on the retina where there are no receivers i.e. no cones or rods, and the reason there are no cones or rods is because this spot is where the opic nerve teminates in the retina. No receivers, no signal to the brain.
How do you think the blind spot affects your vision?
the blind spot does not effect your vision, sort of... you see, your brain uses all the information from the picture/its vision to fill in that blind spot, in other words what you think your seeing is really not true (in your blind spot) your brain is putting what it thinks should be there.
