Does the human eye/mind see in frames per second?

Would it just be the rate of synapses firing? What would that be?
The human eye views the world in frames per second [1]. The number of frames per second that the human eye can perceive varies between 30 and 60[1]. This is the same number of frames per second that most experts agree the human eye can process [5]. Watching videos or shows at 24 to 30 frames per second is fairly standard [2]. Higher frame rates, such as those found on computer monitors or TVs, can make the flicker of images less noticeable [3]. Some research even suggests that the brain can process images seen for only 13 milliseconds [4].
The human eye and brain can interpret up to 1000 frames per second [4]. However, it takes time for the light that passes through your cornea to become information on which your brain can act, and our brains can only process that information at a certain speed [1]. Moreover, the whole of what we perceive is greater than what any one element of our visual system can achieve [1]. As a result, the rate at which the human eye/mind sees in frames per second is not simply the rate of synapses firing, but is also influenced by physical and natural limits to perception [1]. Most people can see about 30-60 frames per second [5]. Some people can detect a slight flicker in a 60 Hz fluorescent lightbulb, and most people will see flickery smears across their vision if they make a rapid eye movement when looking at the modulated LED tail lights [2].
