Each pixel, is a semiconductor material that absorbs photons and generates electrons.

pix·el
/ˈpiksəl/
noun
a minute area of illumination on a display screen, one of many from which an image is composed.

Just because the picture on the monitor is a representation of the real thing doesn't change the fact that the pixel itself is within optical range. A pixel is a material that absorbs photons to allow us to see the representation.

Remember the definition? Any kind of matter that is within optical range will produce an image as long as there is enough light present.
Explain how it is that we are allowed to see yellow when there is no yellow "matter" there.
