Human beings are quite impressive in some ways. We view things in our minds that don't exist, and we create them, sometimes on a massive scale (i.e. computers, fiber optics technology, the walls in your room). We view things before we can physically see them. We create from nothing something never before seen and only imagined.

We also cheat light constantly. My night vision site shows what can't be seen with the naked eye in the dark, so do xrays and ultrasounds. So many real world examples of this, including what CERN did today.

However if you're attempting to limit the discussion to being able to sense something visually, before you can sense it visually, then that's a straw mans discussion and I'm out on that one.
