Question

Why is it that you can see images in your brain when you can see images in your eyes at the same time? Do you know how people can see images in their mind?

Answer 1

so whats the question? How does imagination work?
Imagination is, in general, the power and process of producing mental images and ideas. The term is technically used in psychology for the process of reviving in the mind percepts of objects formerly given in sense perception. Since this use of the term conflicts with that of ordinary language, some psychologists have preferred to describe this process as "imaging" or "imagery" or to speak of it as "reproductive" as opposed to "productive" or "constructive" imagination. Imagined images are seen with the "mind's eye". One hypothesis for the evolution of human imagination is that it allowed conscious beings to solve problems (and hence increase an individual's fitness) by use of mental simulation.

Answer 2

There's imagination where you can 'see' things in your mind, but not necessarily seeing them at the moment or ever seeing them in your life.

And the images you see with your eyes aren't really translated them in your eyes, but in your brain. Your eyes send the images to your brain, where you can make sense of them. Your eyes are just like a camera. Your brain does the rest of the work, like interpreting the images.
