Did you know?

Did you know that peripheral vision, which the word peripherally describes, allows humans to detect movement up to 100 degrees away from the center of gaze, covering about 180 degrees of our visual field and helping us spot threats or opportunities without fully turning our heads? This evolutionary advantage was crucial for early humans in detecting predators in the wild.
