How far can a horse see?

Answer 1

A horse can see up to about 1 mile on flat ground.Ans2:You and horses can see hundreds of light years when you look at the stars. Absolute distance is not necessarily how you would judge how well a horse sees. Based on the size of the eye, you could expect that a horse can see 50% better than a human except that does not take into account the shape of a horse's pupil. Their eyes are designed to provide panoramic vision and not to provide detail such as the human eye provides by giving binocular vision and by having a well-developed fovea.

The paper at the attached link covers these topics and many others. Horses have eyes that see well enough to protect them from predators that might be able to out-run them if they get close enough. They would certainly be able to see storms blowing in from miles away.

Answer 2

a horses vision is a lot like ours. they can not see straight in front of them, they can see a 320 degrees around them, and they can only see in a few colors. And a horse cannot use their binocular vision if an object is closer than 4 feet.

Answer 3

Horses do not have perfect eyesight, they have a few blindspots like they can not see directly in front of them, or behind them that is why some horses spook and also tilt their heads to see around them. Not sure of this, read it on a website: They also can not see the their own knees and feet, but can see better in the dark than we can, but have a harder time adjusting.

Answer 4

Horses have excellent distance vision and can typically see objects up to a mile away. However, their depth perception is not as strong, so they may have difficulty judging the distance of things closer to them.

Answer 5

Two. One directly in front of them and one directly behind.

Answer 6

Yes horses have eyes. They are placed on the side of the heads and have better vision then humans.

Answer 7

Horses don't have a vision they can't see very far in frount of them
