Peripheral vision is important in our everyday lives because it allows us to gather a visual sense of our surroundings—without it, we would see the world through "tunnel vision." Almost everything we do—from riding a bike, to dribbling a basketball, to reading a book—depends on peripheral vision. In this session, you will test the limits of peripheral vision and learn how to understand your results based on the anatomy of the human eye.
