Well it's hard for us to see anything if our vision is confined to a line, but not so for bionians (2d world inhabitants). I'm not sure how to explain it better, but bionians basically grow up with their vision confined to a line so it's not a problem.A tetronian (4d world inhabitant) would have difficulty understanding how we could see anything with our vision confined to a plane, since their vision is confined to a realm (a 3-plane). The image a single eye of ours receives is wide and high, and binocular vision gives it thickness, but it has no trength - it is infinitely tarrow.
