The evolving understanding of the limits of human visual perception has advanced the development of optical devices that not only correct visual defects but also help manage changes in certain eye structures. As modern optical technologies allow precise control of the quantum properties of light, recent endeavours have started testing the quantum capabilities of human eye perception, proving that they can detect single photons. This paves the way for the application of quantum metrology and cryptography to medical imaging, with potential increase in precision and security.
