are your eyelids opaque?

Mine aren't! Alex says that "normal" people's eyelids are opaque and that I'm abnormal.

If you have your eyes closed in a dark room, and a small bedside lamp goes on, can you tell? I certainly can. I can tell when the iPod is on, and can even sense it's flickering between different screens. I find it highly irritating, but Alex says I'm just weird because I shouldn't be able to tell light changes through closed eyelids.

How "thick" are your eyelids?

I can totally see things through my eyelids. Who can't? Those people would have been weeded out by natural selection in ancient times. You and I would have been able to tell when the sun was up or when a predator was approaching (if it was casting a shadow). You're not abnormal, you are gifted :)
