Also, your perception of time changes during/after saccade movements. If you ever look at a clock and think it's felt like longer than a second for the hand to move that's because for your brain it has.

Feel happy! Eyesight uses saccades. Flashing is better.

Cyclists and motorcyclists:
Recognise the risk of being in a saccade. High contrast clothing and lights help. In particular, flashing LED’s (front and rear) are especially effective for cyclists as they create contrast and the on-off flashing attracts the peripheral vision in the same manner that movement does. There’s nothing wrong with leaving these on during the day. (Especially if they are rechargeable)
