well i dont hink so as the fibres for the light reflex and before optic radiation

  #4

some fibers fro optic track go to superior coliculus and then to prtactal are for light elflex

while most of the fibers from optic tract go to lateral geniculate body and form optic radiation on their way to visual cortex

so in dmage of optic radiation i think the fibres for the light relfex are not damged
