Snakes have a lens in their eyes to focus light and form images, just like in other vertebrates. The lens is crucial for their vision, allowing them to detect movement and shapes in their environment, which is essential for hunting and navigating. Additionally, some snakes have a protective scale called a spectacle that covers the lens, helping to keep it from damage and maintain clarity. This adaptation is vital for their survival as ambush predators.
