To see what shrimp see, just wear polarized glasses!
The world from the eye’s of a shrimp is not the same one you and I see everyday.
Current Biology has opened our eyes into what shrimp see, and it looks like the closest we’re gonna get to it is by putting on a pair of polarized sunglasses.
If you don’t have any with you right now though, just click the thumbnail for a photo of how they see light reflected, a trait brought on by nature for their need to hunt for food from the ocean floor, and at the same time, hide from their predators.
