The brain does an awful lot with blurry and outright missing data. Look at something in your peripheral vision and name the colour of it, that's the brain filing in information that your eyes can't see. We only have good eyesight in a surprisingly small region directly in front of us.
> The dividing line between near and mid peripheral vision at 30° radius is based on several features of visual performance. Visual acuity declines by about 50% every 2.5° from the center up to 30°, at which point visual acuity declines more steeply.[18] Color perception is strong at 20° but weak at 40°.[19] 30° is thus taken as the dividing line between adequate and poor color perception. In dark-adapted vision, light sensitivity corresponds to rod density, which peaks just at 18°. From 18° towards the center, rod density declines rapidly. From 18° away from the center, rod density declines more gradually, in a curve with distinct inflection points resulting in two humps. The outer edge of the second hump is at about 30°, and corresponds to the outer edge of good night vision. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_vision https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_vision
