the claim

Humans can see infrared light.

the verdict
REFUTED
the evidence says no
Recorded sources
0 sources for · 5 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that humans can see infrared light?

No. Multiple reference and peer-reviewed sources state that the human eye cannot see infrared light; humans only detect it as heat. No source supports unaided human infrared vision.
