Blind spots
Blind spots
Most people (even many who work on the brain) assume that what you see is pretty much what your eye sees and reports to your brain. In fact, your brain adds very substantially to the report it gets from your eye, so that a lot of what you see is actually “made up” by the brain.
the coolest thing i have seen in a while
My blind spot (at least for my right eye) is about an inch in diameter when something is about a foot from the screen
