--Mark Hill 12:20, 15 August 2012 (EST) This is a better title.

Introduction

Eyes are an important sensory organ shared across many different species and allow organisms to gather useful visual information from their environment.

Research history

Developmental time line

Eyes initially form laterally from the optic placode and migrate medially in the human embryo. In other animals such as birds and lizards, the eyes do not migrate and develop laterally on the head.
