The answer is False


The visual processing begins at the eye where a constant flow of light information arrives. From these elementary visual cues, a complex treatment of the retinal image is performed by the human brain to construct a stable perceptive representation of the surrounding world.

From this construction of a stable perceptive representation of the object, it is then possible to perform an interpretation by association with pre-existing representations in memory for the purpose of recognizing the object.
