Sight is the king of the senses. More than 80 percent of what we know of the world comes through our eyes — without our sight we’re lost. This episode reveals the inner workings of our visual system as they’ve never been seen before, vividly confirming that ancient human adaptations prove no less crucial in modern life. The astounding hidden powers in our eyes are brought to life by true stories. Segment 1 (15 min)
lots of interesting information in this one… I do tend to prefer the drier documentaries over these flashy hyped up computer animated ones though. I like my documentaries so dry that they would put most people to sleep!
I actually really like the flashy animation in this series. I think they are essential and not hyped at all because they are crucial in helping to visualize how the body functions.
Quite an incredible documentary that goes to illustrate the absolute wonder of our body. Whoever designed it is more than a genius. :) For one who is increasingly suffering from sight impairment with a small possibility of losing it altogether, this offers hope that one day science will have a major breakthrough that not only can totally restore sight but also treat conditions that presently have no cure for.
Yes, there seems to be much hope in the near future…
