Why do our eyes move during sleep?
After many research conducted by scientists, it was found that there is a noticeable movement in the eyes of humans even in their sleep, and the state of the sleeper by moving his eyes called "sleep rapid eye movement."

During the sleep
, the scientists experimented with displaying a group of images on humans while they watched the brain's reaction. They then showed the same images to humans as they woke up. The brain's reaction was close in both cases. They discovered that what was happening was excessive activity in the neurons. Stimulated by the brain itself, as scientists said that this increase occurs itself in times of vigilance as well.

In addition to what we have said, blind people also move their eyes during sleep, but in their dreams they do not see images, but their dreams are sounds and emotions, and are affected in the same way that ordinary human is affected by increased stimulation in their neurons in the eye, Sound and feelings.
