Do animals use refraction?

In general, the process refraction only occurs in the eyes (as far as I know). So I assume you are asking how animals use refraction in their eyes, and by "refraction" you mean the refraction of light. In general, when light enters the eyes, it first enters the cornea of the eyes, which is then refracted into the pupil through the aqueous humor. The thickness and convexity of the lens control how the light is refracted into the eye. The light is focused on the retina which has rods and cone (photoreceptors/light sensors) which sends nerve impulses to the brain. Therefore, the animal is able to see. The parts of the eyes that does the refraction are the cornea, aqueous humor, lens, and the vitreous humor. You might want to surf the web for more details about this
