Some species of Vibrio, particularly Vibrio fischeri, emit a blue-green light through a biochemical process called bioluminescence. This phenomenon is primarily due to the enzyme luciferase, which catalyzes a reaction between luciferin, a light-emitting molecule, and oxygen. When these chemicals react, they produce light, typically in the blue-green spectrum. This bioluminescence serves various ecological purposes, including communication, attracting prey, and deterring predators.

Is an eye luminous?

No. Eyes are not luminous. They observe or perceive light but they do not emit light. Luminous means "emit light." There are various species of animals, such as deer, cats, and dogs, whose eyes have the ability to reflect light which sometimes make them appear to glow in the dark as they reflect a flashlight, headlight, or other light that is shining in their direction. But even then, the eyes do not produce their own light so they are not luminous.
