It doesn't need to be a whole understanding of the nearby world to build an image. Basically it's an event camera (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_camera https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_camera) and just needs to integrate recent visual "samples".
But if you do need to understand objects near you in detail (say, to move them), you don't do it just by looking. You investigate them by moving closer to them, picking them up, etc. If you need to "create a world model", then it's an activity rather something your senses just do.
