Perception is tied to our understanding of reality.
A dog's opinion of the reality of scents would be vastly different than a human's.
A blind person's reality is different, too.
How we perceive physical reality is dependent on our ability to perceive it.

Or are we discussing a reality beyond physical reality?

As to knowledge, my own take has always been knowledge is the accumulation of data. Wisdom is the use you make of that data.
