The Eyes Have It

 Phil is having his cataract surgery here on Thursday, it is way out of town. So I will not be visiting or blogging today.





Did you know that our eyes are the most highly developed sensory organs in our bodies? It’s so complex that neurons devoted to visual processing take up almost 30% of the cortex. That’s a huge chunk of the brain compared to what the other senses use.
