The Golden Eagle

The Golden Eagle although extremely superior to ours, does share a few of the same things. Both of them share many things such as the pupil, iris, only two eyes, and many more basic eye structures. The Golden Eaglle does have many things exclusive to raptor eyes only though. For one, its eyes are positioned to the side of the head allowing it to see a massive 340 degrees of peripheral vision. Since their eyes are their weapon - they take up 50% of their whole head. While a human eye has two foveas in total, a golden eagle has four. A golden eagle also has two eye lids in each eye instead of the standard one the human eye has. One is to nourish the eye similar to ours, and the other is see through! This second eye-lid serves to protect the eye from dust, debris, etc. Something else golden eagles have is pectin. Pectin nourishes the retina. Their eyesight is also a lot sharper, a 20/5. Meaning that the Golden Eagle can see something from 20 feet that a human has to be 5 feet to see that same thing. More over the golden eagle's eyes don't stop there. They also have the ability to see UV light. This helps them in hunting, e.g detecting an animal's waste, and tracking them. Finally their cornea isn't stationary, it can bend and move in order to focus light, like a lens! Below is a venn diagram simplifying what I just said.
