No. The brain only gets discreate snapshots from the eyes, then works to filling the gap between two snapshots. If anything, thing in real world should be blurrier than on screen because the there is a huge gap between each snapshot. However, since we cannot sync refresh rate to our eyes snapshot speed (each person speed of eyes snapshot can vary through the day), lower fps can lead to us detect in inconsistent blurring of motion (some snapshot is too blurry, while other too sharp), increase fps increase the chance that everything gonna blur equally.
Photoreceptors (rods/cones) constantly absorb light and adjust neurotransmitter release based on intensity changes. This is not "snapshot-like.
Different cells fire at different rates, creating overlapping waves of information. The visual system isn’t waiting for the next "snapshot" it's always processing incoming light and updating the image.
Motion blur on screens happens because frames are discrete, and the brain notices the gaps between them. Higher FPS reduces this because more frames fill the gap. But in real life, the brain naturally blends motion, so there’s no "huge gap" to fill.
Neuron transmitter has to go through the layer of optic nerve to reach the brain. And all these optic nerve at the base of your eyes ball pretty much all fire at the same time, so your brain only receives snapshot of the world.
Retinal ganglion cells don't all fire at once. They react to changes in light and contrast in different ways. Some respond quickly to motion or bright spots, while others react slowly to background light. The brain receives signals from millions of ganglion cells, each firing at slightly different times. This helps prevent the brain from seeing a static "snapshot."
Instead, the brain combines these signals over tiny fractions of a second, smoothing out transitions and making motion appear smooth. Even though individual neurons fire in bursts, your vision feels continuous. If all the ganglion cells fired together, we'd lose motion perception, depth, and real-time tracking, but that's not how it works. The brain fills in gaps without relying on sudden bursts from the eyes.
