Cuttlefish eyes are among the most developed in the animal kingdom.
The organogenesis of cephalopod eyes differs fundamentally from that
of vertebrates like humans. Superficial similarities between cephalopod
and vertebrate eyes are thought to be examples of convergent evolution.
The cuttlefish pupil is a smoothly-curving W shape.
Although they cannot see color, they can perceive the polarization of light,
which enhances their perception of contrast. They have two spots of
concentrated sensor cells on their retina (known as fovea),
one to look more forward, and one to look more backwards.
The lenses, instead of being reshaped as they are in humans,
are pulled around by reshaping the entire eye in order to change focus.
Scientists have speculated that cuttlefish's eyes are fully developed
before birth and start observing their surroundings while still in the egg.
One team of French researchers has additionally suggested that cuttlefish
prefer to hunt the prey they saw before hatching.
