How does the brain peer through the eyes? From the back of the eye to the brain, the material is opaque, and are you trying to say that the brain has another set of eyes to look through the windows of the eye to see things? What part of the brain is doing the "looking"?
The eyes are doing the looking but the brain is what causes the eyes to work together.
That is the afferent account of vision, and it's not what your father wrote.
It was not in those exact words, but it means the same thing.
