Default Seeing is believing True or otherwise?

This ofcourse is not true since the eye does not see what the brain
interpretes what they see.
A pair of glasses was made that inverted the image of what apparently
seen by the wearer, such
that other people was seen as being upside down. Within a day the
brain correctly interprets the inversion and from then on the wearer
saw people in an upright position even tho he was wearing glasses that
inverted the vision.
This brings home the point that the brain sees an image in some form
based on electrical pulses recieved from the eye and with its
inherrent brain power interpretes what is seen in term as to what it
should be seeing.
Thus seeing is just a reflection of what the brain states you should
be seeing based on past experiences.
So... seeing is not believing!

Yes there are a lot of people who only see what they want to see.
