Secret ability of horse eyes
Horses have quite good eyesight thanks to their very special eyes. In terms of width, with a diameter of about 5 cm, the horse is an earth mammal with the largest eyes, it weighs 9 times heavier than the human eye. According to legend, this makes horses see things larger than humans, but in reality this is not true.
The mystery of the power of the horse’s eye is that it cannot focus on a spot like the human eye. The lower part of the horse’s eye retina sees distant objects and the upper part looks closer. That means that if you want to know where the horse is looking, you should pay attention to the direction of its head.
