I know light gets reflected from an object and then our eyes catch that light to see that object, but I don’t understand what’s happening here. Are our eyes seeing the reflected or anything else. Please explain me in detail.
In: Physics
Our retinas have special cells on them that are sensitive to light (of different wavelengths). When light enters the eye, the lens focuses it on the retina, and the cells that get hit with the specific wavelength of light they are sensitive to send a signal to your brain that says “I saw light”. The brain then assembles all of those signals into a coherent “picture” that you eyes see.
