Sensory adaptation refers to a reduction in sensitivity to a stimulus after constant exposure to it. While sensory adaptation reduces our awareness of a constant stimulus, it helps free up our attention and resources to attend to other stimuli in the environment around us. All five of our senses are constantly adjusting to what's around us, as well as to us individually and what we are experiencing, such as aging or disease.
Sensory adaptation is the process by which our brain cells become less sensitive to constant stimuli that are picked up by our senses. This process occurs for all the senses except for vision, which is the most important sense for humans. Sensory adaptation of vision is avoided through saccadic movements of the eye. Sensory adaptation is important for daily functioning because it allows our attention to be freed to detect new and/or important aspects of our environment without being distracted by aspects of it that are constantly there.
