We can only focus our eyes on one thing at a time, and we see everything else twice - LemmyWorld

Everything gets projected to the back of our eyes and that’s what gets transferred to our brains, so what we actually see is the inside of our own eyes.
And because the light gets passed through a pinhole (the pupil) before hitting the back of our eyes, we actually see everything upside-down
And we don’t “see” that reflection directly either. Our brain does a bunch of processing and cleaning of that sensory input to put together the view of the world we actually perceive as our vision. Hence why there’s no obvious blindspot and we don’t perceive each eye independently. Making what we actually see the inside of our own mind.
