This paper presents a unified framework connecting quantum measurement theory with neurocognitive phenomena, particularly blindsight. Drawing upon the Perceptual Tangent Space (PTS), we model conscious and subconscious states as projections on a quantum perceptual manifold. Weak measurement theory is employed to interpret blindsight behavior as a non-collapsing interaction with visual stimuli, mediated by decoherence-resistant perceptual channels. We introduce quantum path integrals over cognitive geodesics, category-theoretic mappings of perceptual state transitions, and entangled cross-modal constructs to represent synesthetic and unconscious processing. Concepts from quantum error correction, noncommutative geometry, and spin networks are adapted to model resilience and granularity of perceptual awareness. Additionally, we explore topos logic, holography, and renormalization principles to mathematically reconstruct observer-dependent cognition from incomplete sensory boundaries. Altogether, the paper situates consciousness within a quantum information-geometric topology, offering a rigorous treatment of perception as a quantum-inferential, decoherence-bound phenomenon conditioned by attention, awareness, and contextual measurement bases.
