How much energy:
"conveyed?"
"converted?"

Quantified answers only as English seems to be so wholly unsuited to

I see the North Star on a clear night through detection of
photons. What does it matter how many photons I am detecting?
There's more than enough to detect. And every one contains
energy "conveyed" from Polaris and "converted" by my retina.
