How many eyes does a sea turtle have?
The tuatara (a lizard-like reptile native to New Zealand) technically has three eyes. Two are ordinary functional eyes but the third, or parietal eye, is under its skin and is not used for vision. This is similar to the third eye called the pineal gland found in mammals and humans. It is a common feature in reptiles such as lizards and frogs.
The parietal eye has a lens, retina and nerve connection, and grows on top of the reptile's head, under the skin. It is thought that light falling on this third eye may influence certain biological functions such as sleep and hibernation.
