The image may be "real" ... but the data that goes to your brain is NOT.
You see only "fragments" of the image - edges, lines, contrasts, frequencies (NOT colors),
and it all gets "reintegrated" in your occipital lobe
That is - your brain must build up a model from the data it gets -
inverting it is a cinch.

How does refraction allow you to see?
The refraction of light by the cornea and lens of the eye makes it possible for an image to form on the retina. Without the formation of an image, it would be possible for the retina to detect the presence or absence of light, but not shapes or objects.
What does the lens do on an eye?
It makes an image to fall on the retina. For this function the thickness of the lens is changed according to the distance of the object.
Why do raccoons have glowing eyes?
The eyes reflect light off the tapetum lucidum behind the retina. It makes it looks like the eyes are glowing.
Who makes the retina display?

How can cats have better eyes than humans?
Unlike humans, cats have something called tapetum lucidum, which is a reflective layer behind the retina that sends light that passes through the retina back into the eye. This makes it easier for them to see in the dark. But, because of this, this makes it harder for them to see in light than humans.
What single letter makes a common English word when placed both in front and behind ealt?
H.
How is virtual image formed in plane mirror?
When an object is illuminated, light rays scatter off it in all directions. Any rays that strike a flat mirror will reflect, but continue to diverge in a disorganized way. If some of these rays enter a human eye, the lens/cornea will stop them diverging and start them converging. This focusing process ensures that all rays emanating from a single point on the object arrive at a single point on the retina. However, the brain makes no allowance for the change of direction at the mirror and perceives the rays to have originated from an object behind the mirror. This apparent object is is called the virtual image of the mirror. It can only be viewed with the help of a converging lens, such as that in the eye, which forms a real image on the retina.
An object 5 millimeter high is located 15 millimeter in front of a plane mirror How far from the mirror is the image located?
The distance between the object and mirror is 15 mm. The distance between the image and mirror is 15 mm. Therefore, the distance between the image and object is 15 mm plus 15 mm which equals 30 mm.
How do the lenss in a microscope magnify an image?
A convex lens bends the light that goes through it toward a focal point. The light spreads out again past this focal point. Magnifying glasses are convex lenses. When you use one, the lens bends the light rays so that they come together and focus on the lens within your eye. The light then spreads out as the rays continue past the focal point, and they hit the retina of the eye. The spreading of the light makes the image viewed appear much larger than it really is because it causes the image to take up more space on the retina. Moving the magnifying glass closer or farther away from the eye will change how much the light is spread on the retina. The closer the magnifying glass is to the eye, the bigger the image will appear.
Why is the blind spot so called?
a blind spot is when someone stares at the light and it makes a spot in there eye that makes them blind.they call it a blind spot because it makes you blind and it makes a spot in your eye.
What single letters makes a common English word when placed both in front of and behind the letters ealt?
The only English words that use the letter 'ealt' at the front or back are DEALT and MISDEALT. However, if you put a letter in front and behind 'ealt' you can spell the words fealty, health, lealty, realty, or wealth.
