Objects are visible to us when light from the object enters our eyes and is detected by our retinas. This light stimulates nerve impulses that are sent to the brain, where they are processed and interpreted as images. The visibility of an object also depends on factors such as its size, distance, color, and the amount of available light.

Objects are visible to us only if light is reflected off of the object. We cant see anything without light.
