Hva er syn og kjennetegn på nedsatt syn?

Synsansen er en av våre fem sanser. En stor del av hjernen benyttes til å bearbeide synsinntrykk. Synssansen oppfatter inntrykk både på svært stor avstand, for eksempel når vi kan se et fjell mange mil før vi står ved fjellets fot, og veldig nært, som rusket på brilleglasset. Synssansen gir oss informasjon om form, farge, avstand, størrelse og bevegelse. Forenklet kan en si at synssansen består av: øyet, synsnerven, synsbanene og synssenteret i hjernen.
