The nature of these eyes means that if one were to peer into the pupil of an eye, one would see the same image that the organism would see, reflected back out. [ 1 ] Many small organisms such as rotifers , copepods and flatworms use such organs, but these are too small to produce usable images. [ 1 ]
Accommodation is the process by which the vertebrate eye changes optical power to maintain a clear image or focus on an object as its distance varies.

The vertical range of ...
