What wavelenghts are invisible to the human eye?
Wavelengths that are too short, such as ultraviolet and X-rays, or too long, such as infrared and radio waves, are invisible to the human eye. The visible spectrum for humans typically ranges from about 400 to 700 nanometers.
What is the difference between the human eye and the bird's eye?
Birds' eyes have more cones (color receptors) than humans, allowing them to see a wider range of colors and see ultraviolet light. Additionally, birds' eyes are larger in proportion to their body size than humans', giving them better visual acuity and depth perception.
What is the color spectrum humans cannot see?

Does the tuatara's third eye have a use and does it absorb sun to put itself to sleep?
The tuatara is not the only reptile with a so-called pineal eye; most reptiles have one, and amphibians and fish do too. Light falls through and stimulates a part of the brain, making the animal active. If you cover the pineal eye, the animal will relax as if falling asleep. Mammals don´t have a pineal eye because part of our brain grew over the part stimulated by light. Instead, light comes through our eyes to stimulate it. That´s why we feel sleepy as soon as we close our eyes!

The tuatara, a lizard-like reptile that lives only in New Zealand, has those three "eyes." It belongs to a group of reptiles that once included many other creatures, but today, the tuatara is the only surviving member of that group. To understand where the tuatara's "third" eye came from, scientists studied a small growth attached to the front of the reptile's brain, a gland my called the pineal body. In some lizards, the part of the brain that is related to this pineal body is shaped much like an eye. It has a lens-shaped outer wall, a transparent covering, and a retina with pigment. Scientists think that this "pineal eye" does not help most lizards see, but in the tuatara, the pineal eye is fully developed, giving the creature a "third eye" through which to see!
