Indirect realism is the theory that we perceive the external world not directly but indirectly through sense data—mental representations or images that are caused by and correspond to objects in the external world. According to indirect realism, there is a "veil" between our minds and the external world, as we do not perceive objects themselves directly but rather representations or impressions of those objects formed in our minds.
