What does "essential" have to do with it? We perceive a certain part of the EM spectrum because that's what our eyes are sensitive to.

There is an independent "essential" reality to the EM force/field quite apart from our perception of it and reconstruction of image by our brains.

Perhaps I'm using the term/concept incorrectly....
