Eli5 why do we see things in the corners of our eyes when there’s nothing really there?
In: Biology
Vision in the peripheral is built to detect movement, your brain interprets input and this is what you “see”, especially related to danger. From time to time, a specific set of inputs are mistaken for something else and you then “see” something out of the corner of your eye which is in effect a prediction that later proves false.
