Cats eye. The eyes of cats are adapted for night vision by the presence
Cats eye. The eyes of cats are adapted for night vision by the presence of a structure behind the retina called the tapetum lucidum. This reflects light that passes through the retina back into the eye. Cats also have large pupils, but in domestic cats (Felis catus) the pupils form a slit shape to reduce chromatic aberration. In low light levels a domestic cats pupil will expand to cover most of its eye. Despite this, domestic cats have poor color vision

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cat's Eye" from Science Photo Library beautifully captures the mesmerizing features of a domestic cat's eye. The intricate details showcased in this image highlight the remarkable adaptations that enable cats to excel in low-light conditions. The eyes of cats are truly fascinating, as they possess a unique structure known as the tapetum lucidum, located behind their retina. This specialized feature reflects light back into their eyes, enhancing their night vision capabilities. Additionally, domestic cats have large pupils that form a distinctive slit shape to minimize chromatic aberration and optimize visual clarity. In this photograph, we witness a close-up view of a feline's eye profile. The soft fur surrounding it adds an element of warmth and familiarity to the image. From this side view perspective, we can appreciate how the pupil expands in dim lighting conditions to cover most of the eye surface. While cats may not perceive colors with great accuracy compared to humans, their exceptional sensory abilities make them formidable hunters and explorers within their natural environment. This photo serves as a reminder of nature's incredible adaptability and showcases the intricate biology that contributes to these magnificent creatures' extraordinary vision.
