You've almost got it!  Your knowledge of your field of vision seems to be
near the front of your knowledge of your brain (or skull) somewhere near the
general vicinity of your knowledge of your eyes.  Some of this knowledge is
accurate and some of it is inaccurate - or deceiving.  And some of it - your
knowledge of yourself looking out of your skull - has no referent in reality
at all.  But this doesn't mean your phenomenal knowledge of yourself doesn't
exist.
