Chances are that you cannot, seeing as your brain will no longer have function therefore your eyes cannot process an image.

What does Asystoli mean?

Asystole is when the heart has stopped long enough to become depolarized. At this time, it may be time to consider pronouncing death as even electrical shocks would most likely be useless. By the time Asystole sets in, the brain has gone a good 20-45 minutes without oxygen. Asystole is when the heart has stopped long enough to become depolarized.

Once breathing has stoped and the heart has stoped beating brain death starts in how many minutes?

Brain death can't be determined if the heart has already stopped, this would be considered cardiac death. Brain death is determined when someone is on a ventilator (not breathing on their own due to injury or illness) and an EEG or other procedure has been completed and shows no signs of brain activity. The body will continue to "live" with the help of the ventilator oxygenating the organs, but when taken off the ventilator then the body has no impulse to breathe for itself due to the brain being dead.

What is the permanent damage to the brain after 10 minutes without oxygen?

The brain can survive without oxygen for about 3 minutes before it is permanently damaged. After 3 minutes there is likely to be severe brain damge which usually leads to a coma. If you survive the coma you will probably have very limited brain function i.e. not being able to walk or talk. After 10 minutes, (without special measures such as freezing) the brain will most likely be dead.
