From the Paper:

"The human eye is a fascinating function. If not for our eyes, we would not be able to enjoy the visual interpretations of people, places and things. Of the five known senses - see, hear, feel, touch and smell - the gift of sight is probably the most valued. For if an individual lost four of the senses - hear, feel, touch and smell - he or she would still retain sight. We have seen movies for example, wherein someone loses their sight. Amazingly, the other four senses become more highly developed and sensitive than when the individual could see."
