I've read of other tests indicating it probably was so that one photon can be detected by the human eye.
Plenty interesting here. One related to blind testing (with eyes no less) is only about 10% of the photons reaching the eye make it to the rods to be perceived. So testing that with human volunteers is a little different.
Then on the other hand, according to some audiophile abilities, they'd have to be hearing one electron or in some cases less than one electron in a circuit. Maybe they should forget about eyes, and switch to ears that ear movements of sub-atomic particles possibly even quarks.
