It really is. I took some natural eyesight-improvement lessons a year or so ago, and one of the eye "exercises" is to create dappled light on your closed eyelids by facing into the sun and moving your spread fingers back and forth between your eyes and the light. It's amazingly soothing and relaxing. I think something chemical gets triggered by its effect on the optic nerve. Dopamine or serotonin or something.
