TIL about blindsight, a phenomenon by which visually blind people can apparently see or detect objects without using their visual cortex
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/BlindsightIt was a footnote in an article I read about a monkey using blindsight and that there had been several experiments with humans proving blindsight existed and that surprised me. As a footnote.
There have been several experiments that indicate people can see without using their visual cortex.
