Maybe biology, maybe physics. I’m not sure. Either way, I really can’t wrap my head around this
When I look in a mirror without my glasses on, everything in the ‘distance’ in the mirror is still blurry, but how can this be? All the light reaching my eye from that mirror is coming from the same place. The light can’t be out of focus before it reaches the mirror, so how come it can be when reflecting from the flat plane to my eye?
*Edit: I do understand how an image is produced in a mirror and how we perceive depth in a reflected image, but the fact is that the light is still reflecting off of a flat plane at a uniform distance – I can’t understand how that reflection can possibly have **actual** depth that can affect my shortsightedness*
In: Biology
Because it is only reflecting the light, the mirrors “insides” are your room technically, with all the distances thatbare in there.
