Yes. Er… No. :-)

Seriously… if we want to get technical about it, what actually happens is that the electromagnetic field interacts with an electric charge in your eye. Because the electromagnetic field is quantized, the interaction takes place in the form of a set unit, or quantum, the energy, momentum and angular momentum of which is transferred to a molecule in your eye (in which it induces further electrical and chemical changes that eventually register in your nervous system.)

So here is the way it works. At any given frequency, the electromagnetic field’s energy can only be increased or decreased one step at a time. So when this interaction with your eye occurs, “one unit of wave” (a photon) is removed from the electromagnetic field. Because this unit is well-defined, and the location of the interaction is well confined within your eye, it makes sense to think of it as something compact like a particle. But it really is neither; it is not a particle, nor is it a wave in the classical sense.

Hence my cryptic answer above.

Of course I could have simply just said yes (and justify it) or no (and justify it) but both those answers would have been misleading, because they imply that you can think of a quantum field as either a miniature cannonball (a classical particle) or as a wave in the ocean (a classical wave), when in fact neither applies. The idea that the field is waving (just like a classical field would) but that its “excitations” come one unit at a time is not something that can be intuited as it has no classical parallel. Which is why, probably, it is not a good idea to call it either a wave or a particle. Instead call it an excitation or a field quantum, while noting that it has some properties vaguely resembling a classical particle and some properties vaguely resembling a classical wave but it truly is neither.
