Mantis shrimp have compound eyes that provide them with one of the most complex visual systems in the animal kingdom. They can detect polarized light and have trinocular vision, allowing them to perceive depth.
Chameleons have remarkable eyes that can move independently of each other. Each eye can focus on a different object simultaneously, providing them with an excellent field of view.
Owls have large, forward-facing eyes that are adapted for low light conditions. Their eyes are so well-adapted that they can see in almost total darkness, and their ability to rotate their heads enhances their vision further.
Geckos have incredible eyes with a unique structure. They lack eyelids and instead have a transparent membrane that cleans and protects their eyes. Geckos are also known for their excellent night vision.
Cuttlefish have W-shaped pupils and eyes that allow them to perceive polarized light. Their eyes are highly developed and play a crucial role in their complex communication and hunting strategies.
Dragonflies have compound eyes that cover most of their heads. These eyes are excellent at detecting movement and can provide a nearly panoramic view of their surroundings.
Hawkmoths have enormous compound eyes that help them navigate during low light conditions. These eyes are particularly adapted for fast and agile flight.
The colossal squid has the largest eyes in the animal kingdom, measuring up to 11 inches (28 cm) in diameter. These massive eyes allow them to detect prey and predators in the deep, dark ocean depths.
