Why aren't there blood vessels in your sight if there are blood vessels on the retina?

This is because of a phenomenon that prevents our brains from processing what is referred to as a stabilized image. Sense the blood vessels on the retina are in a fixed position and move with the retina as the eye moves our brains can in affect remove the shadows from our vision without us ever being aware of them because the position of the vessels in our field of vision never changes. In the event of a retinal hemorrhage for example where a vessel may expand or burst, this would create vision problems as the event would create a new or changing obstruction on the retina that the brain would be able to detect.
