The Philippine Tarsier probably has big eyes, is because the adapt the changes to the environment. I think they evolved with big eyes in order to catch prey or see predators better. FYI some animals get their outer eye color because they have color pigments. Humans don't. The Philippine Tarsier outer pigment color is golden-yellowish.
