A week or two ago, I was taking a shower and some shampoo went into my eye. I couldn't wipe it with anything, as my hands were also covered in shampoo. So, the only way was to finish washing my head with my eyes closed. I picked / put back the shampoo bottle or shower nozzle with no mistakes. So, I decided to wash myself completely with my eyes closed.
It seemed weird for a moment, but then it came to my mind that I know where everything is by heart and there's no need for me to even see anything. Furthermore, as most of the time, when I'm with my eyes closed, I can still see (to some extent) probably because light still penetrates the eyelids. I even confirmed it by closing my eyelids more forcefully and I couldn't see a thing anymore.
I have confirmed the same in my dark room - I can see my hands, legs and some furniture around me, but when I forcefully push my eyelids together, everything goes black and I can't see nothing anymore. This indicates that it's normal for the eyes to become sensitive enough to see through the eyelids in the dark.
Strangely though, while taking a shower today, I messed everything up with my eyes closed. I couldn't pick the soap even when I visualized picking it first. I was like truly blind with my eyes closed this time. My accuracy was from a few millimeters down to 30 centimeters or so. =? This failure makes the previous seem a bit suspicious - the locations of the soap, shampoo and shower nozzle haven't changed and even the lighting conditions were exactly the same.
