The grouping depends on the type of photoreceptors that the eye uses and of the eye architecture (compound or single-chambered). Throughout evolution as well as in modern species, there are many different types of eyes. Other invertebrates possessed uncomplicated eye designs made up of simple visual organs mainly composed of photoreceptor cells protected by a pigment cell. During that period compound eyes appeared in species, such as tribolites and arthropods. During the important evolutionary event that is known as the Cambrian explosion, it seems that an incredible number of phyla that gave rise to modern species had come into existence within a few million years. It is largely accepted that vision originated in the early Cambrian about half a billion years ago. In this sense, the eye function becomes a very important evolutionary aspect as well and different animal models provide unique accessibility to eye experimentation. Different organisms use different ways to achieve these tasks. One of the most basic aspects of eye function is the sensitivity of cells to light and its transduction though the optic nerve to the brain. Thus the eye has several tissues that do different tasks. The eye is a complex sensory organ, which enables visual perception of the world. Each animal has something unique to contribute to our understanding of how vision was evolved and how we can approach issues that affect it. The reader will navigate through animal models spanning from bacteria to primates. ![]() MIAMI NIGHTS 1984 EARLY SUMMER RAR SERIESThus, in this book we have assembled a series of chapters that address the uniqueness of different animal models in eye research. This eventually will help to clarify the issues pertaining to eye evolution, development, and diseases. Given the number of different visual devises that animals have come up with it is obvious that depending on the eye type, we can acquire distinct knowledge from each one. However, the identification of pax-6 as the master gene in the development of different eye types testifies for a common ancestry. Also embryology teaches us that in different species eyes derive from different tissues. Based on the different types, it is obvious that eyes have evolved more than once. Of the greatest debates in the eye field is how many times eyes have evolved independently during evolution and if there is a common ancestor. ![]()
