Recently I was studying about the anatomy and physiology of the human eye when I realized that it was a complicated organ that is extremely vital in our body .This 1 inch eye that is the fastest muscle could do wonders from helping us see (which may sound less but it is a lot),recognize objects ,and bawl during sad films.
125 million in number photoreceptors are specialized cells that convert light energy(that entered from pupil to retina) to electrical impulses helping us to see different colors,
I thought there are 7 colors-The VIBGYOR🌈. But I was wrong.. To my surprise this tiny eye can differentiate between
more than 10 million colors... WOW... :), 😮🤯
I was enthralled and amazed by how much our eye does to help us see just in one object .
I learned that us humans blink more when we talk, lesser when we read and least when we use electronical gadgets which is why gadgets have a harmful effect on our eyes.
If you are a chatter box like me in that case you blink more. I do blink a lot and I am a chatter box with continuous flow words, hmmm make that a flow sentences, no...scratch it . It is continuous flow of paragraphs.
In fact the more I read the more fascinated I got and the more knowledge I grasped . It took me a few more minutes than usual to learn and understand that even the photoreceptors get tired that is why when you stare at turquoise color for too long and then look at a white surface you notice a faint red color on the wall.....
These might be strange and sound like fiction but these are the marvels of the eye. Trust me it is the truth.
I suggest we all should take immense care of the gift of vision and later pass it on ....
