The brain is the sense organ in Lessans model. The brain looks out the eyes as windows. The brain is doing the visual sensing.

Quite correct.
The brain most-definitely is not a sense organ in the standard model. The eyes are; the olfactory epithelium is; the ears are. The brain is not.
It is Lessans' claims that require the brain to be a sense organ, not those of the standard model.

Wrong. You are splitting hairs to make it appear that there is something wrong with Lessans' reasoning. It's all too clear to me. No matter how you word it, the eyes and brain work differently than the ears and the brain, or taste and the brain, or smell and the brain, or touch and the brain, so please don't use a technicality in his wording to make it appear that he is wrong, which is what you doing.
