    Well, there's a very definite reason why a certain sliver of the electromagnetic

    spectrum is called "visible".

    The meaning of the word 'visible' is 'can be seen with eyes', and that's the label

    given to the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that can be seen with eyes.

    It doesn't include infrared or ultraviolet radiation, because those cannot be seen

    with eyes. Only the 'visible' wavelengths can.
