Before passing on to the subject of the eye, let us briefly
answer the question of how we see. Light rays coming from
an object fall oppositely on the eye’s retina. Here, these light
rays are transmitted into electric signals by cells and reach a
tiny spot at the back of the brain, the “center of vision.” These
electric signals are perceived in this center as an image after
a series of processes. With this technical background, let us
do some thinking.
The brain is insulated from light. That means that its
inside is completely dark, and that no light reaches the place
where it is located. Thus, the “center of vision” is never
touched by light and may even be the darkest place you have
ever known. However, you observe a luminous, bright world
in this pitch darkness.
The image formed in the eye is so sharp and distinct that
even the technology of the twentieth century has not been
able to attain it. For instance, look at the book you are read-
ing, your hands with which you are holding it, and then lift
your head and look around you. Have you ever seen such a
sharp and distinct image as this one at any other place? Even
the most developed television screen produced by the great-
est television producer in the world cannot provide such a
sharp image for you. This is a three-dimensional, colored,
and extremely sharp image. For more than 100 years, thou-
sands of engineers have been trying to achieve this sharp-
ness. Factories, huge premises were established, much
research has been done, plans and designs have been made
for this purpose. Again, look at a TV screen and the book you
hold in your hands. You will see that there is a big difference
