In a perfect world Light would make up its mind whether it was a particle or a wave phenomenon

I saw a short video a while back that explains how you can see the nerve cells in your eye which are, surprisingly, on the lens side of the rods and cones. Normally these are processed out by the optical system but if you make a small aperture with your thumb and index finger, hold it to your eye and jiggle it you can faintly see these structures. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find the video again
