How do we see? Light reflecting off an object enters the cornea of the eye and then the pupil. The lens then focuses it on to the retina. The retina contains light sensitive cells that gather information (light, dark, colour, movement) and sends it to the optic nerve. Cornea Lens Retina

How do we see? The information is then sent to the brain through the optic nerve and in to the visual cortex. Our brains will then work out what we are seeing by using our past experiences to figure it out.

How do we see colour? We usually see light as being white, but it actually contains all the colours of the spectrum. When an object looks red, it will absorb every colour except for red. This means that it will reflect the red, causing it to enter your eyes. Therefore, if an object is green, it will absorb every colour except for green. LIGHT SOURCE
