The field lines are most likely an illusion created as the ferrous particles are magnetized and repel parallel particles.
The ability to see Earth's magnetic field, thought to be restricted to sea turtles and swallows and other long-distance animal navigators, may also reside in human eyes.
Tests of cryptochrome 2, a key protein component of geomagnetic perception, found that its human version restored geomagnetic orientation in cryptochrome-deficient fruit flies.
Flies are a long, long way from people, but that the protein worked at all is impressive. There's also a whole lot of it in our eyes.
oh come on man, there is nothing in the physiology of your eyeballs that should allow you to see electromagnetic lines. I'm assuming you are studying this from the Internet? And then you bought some magnets and now you have special powers? how long have you been studying these magnets? And you're not sure if they can harm you? Holy #

I've been studying a lot on Classical Electromagnetic Theory, Quantum Field Theory, and Quantum Electro Dynamics, lately, and have been using the three to formulate a general set of principles as a precursor to a Grand Unified Theory.
So I was just sitting in my thinking chair, playing with some neodymium magnets, when I leaned in to focus, and suddenly realized that I am able to see what looks like very, very, fine steam-like particles moving between the attracting poles of the magnets. It kinda looks like steam rising from a cup of coffee when the light is passing through it. I have to focus really hard, but I'm definitely seeing something.
This is so freakn COOL!!!!!
Has anyone else noticed this?????????
Try it with some neodymium magnets. Mine are pretty small. Hold the attracting poles towards each other with about 1/4th inch gap in between. Then lean in about 5 inches away. Don't put them too close to your eyes. I don't know if they can cause damage. But if you focus, maybe you'll notice it too.
Let me know if you see the same thing.

Have you recently been exposed to a glowing meteorite? Are you also starting to jump ever increasingly high? Can you lift a small car on your own yet?
Probably the best-known sensory effect of magnetism is shown in total darkness, when the head of a person whose eyes are fully adapted to the dark is put between the poles of an alternating current magnet. As the field strength is increased, the person will begin to see a faint glow around the visual periphery. When the field is reduced, the glow vanishes

Magnetic fields have been found to significantly affect cardiac function, in addition to effects on a myriad of other body systems and problems.

Yeah, that's kinda what it looks like. Like when heat on the pavement is distorting the air as it rises, but its really faint. There's really no other explanation IMO. Its not like I'm seeing Virtual Particles or anything like that. The human eye cant even see a bunch of atoms clumped together. It has to be related to air density.

Interesting. Strange question sort of related to your post, but so you ever see micro dots on the outer layer of your vision? I've seen these ever since childhood and used to be able to control their flow, but now I can only faintly follow their flow. And it's become harder to focus on them.
They have a strange pattern and color to them too. They seem equally spaced apart and they shift "colors" often.
When I was a child, I was able to go micro and macro with them. Sort of zoom in and pan back on them.
This probably has nothing to do with your post, but your post did trigger those memories and I was able to bring them into my vision.
