Abstract
The discussed physical model of the primary visual perception is based on the joint consideration of the structural features of the retina and its functioning, namely, inversion of the retina, the presence of micro-oscillations (tremor), high rate of reaction of photoisomerization and its spatial-time coherence. The above model indicates the existence of significant forward light scattering in the layers of the retina. The existence of micro-oscillations and partial time coherence of the first stage of photoisomerization reaction allows proposing a mechanism of image restoration based on the principles of holographic speckle interferometry.

Helmholtz the classical theory of primary visual perception is based on the fact that the image of object built by eye refractive system is registered by photoreceptors of the retina in the form of two-dimensional intensity distribution uniquely associated with the image of an object [1]
Summary
Helmholtz the classical theory of primary visual perception is based on the fact that the image of object built by eye refractive system is registered by photoreceptors of the retina in the form of two-dimensional intensity distribution uniquely associated with the image of an object [1]. Some experimental and proved facts are: 1) Our retina is inverted and passing light waves are propagating through intermediate layers of cells and fixed by photoreceptors [2]. It goes without saying that mentioned amazing features of the visual apparatus separately have been analyzed by many neurophysiologists in detail and they made a lot of hypotheses It appears that if these features are considered together, it is possible to offer a new physical model of visual perception, which helps to explain how such strange visual system can work. SVET neurophysiological and psychophysical data are the basis of this model
