Retina Chameleon

The retina of a chameleon is unique because it supports tetrachromatic vision, allowing the chameleon to see a broader spectrum of colors, including ultraviolet light. It also enables independent eye movement, wide field of vision, and dual-focus, which is essential for their hunting and survival. The retina’s adaptability to different light conditions and its ability to enhance depth perception further highlight its specialized role in helping chameleons thrive in their environment.
