This shows how the eye lets light in, which is the
basis for how we see all visions. The lens is the small
structure that projects an image onto the retina.
The iris controls how much light is let into your eye,
and this is the colored part of your eye. The pupil is
actually a small hole that lets the light into your eye.
The cornea not only protects the eye, but it begins
to bend the light to make an image on the retina. The
retina itself is in the back of the eye and connected
to the brain by the optic nerve. It also makes the
images we see.
Reverse speech occurs when human speech is
recorded and played backwards. Often, you can hear
very clear statements and is thought to be our 7th
sense. It is nearly always related to the forward
speech and may be part of our natural speech
process. For example, when Neil Armstrong landed on
the moon he said “that's one small step for man”-
reversed to say “Man will space walk”. Another
example is that of Hillary Clinton reversed to say “ I
surely would fit in”. And Ronald Reagan reversed to
say “see the dream'.

Our vision is dependent upon the wavelengths of the

light we see. Human vision is capable of seeing from
380nm-760nm. The diagrams above show the
wavelengths of light that are picked up by each
specific cone, supporting the tri-color theory. The
additive color theory explains how we see different
colors by combining our primary color receptors. For
example when you combine all colors it gives you
white and the absence color is black. We can also see
optical illusions that are created in our minds when
they connect imaginary lines, such as those in the
figure below.

This is known as he Noh mask effect. It shows masks

that are unchanging, that look different whenever
they are tilted to different positions. It
demonstrates one of the many visual illusions that we
can see and how we recognize and register facial
expressions. This is one of many experiments
conducted to show how our eyes and brain work
together to determine the meaning of images not
only what they look like to our eye. Facial
recognition is something we experience everyday and
expressions are also a large part of that.
