Everything we see is dismantled and assembled in our brain. Region of the brain responsible for this is Visual cortex which has approximately 30 different areas working on shape, color, motion, even edges pointing, etc.. Still seeing things and feeling things are handled by different part of the brain and both helps see things the way they are. If we see an illusion of an object and then if we could feel it, brain will change the mapping it initially did just by using the visual experience.
There are people who are face blind. They can even see every component in a face, but they just cant recognize the totality of it. Even for them not all faces looks alike but still they just cant even recognize themselves.
Eyes moves at something only when attention system in brain says so. its like eyes are totally slaves to the attention system.And “neglect” happens when attention system is being damaged.
