I thought that most (all?) eyes only see motion, just as you do not feel the weight of your clothes anymore (or the presence/absense of your wallet in your back pocket) after a while. But reading up on microsaccades[1] - tiny involuntary eye movements which I thought fixed that in mammals - that does not seem to be the current understanding anymore.
