A large pupil and large cornea allow more light to enter their eyes and they can see objects even in the faint light. Therefore, an owl which is a nocturnal animal has a large cornea and more rods. These features increase their field of vision and increase retinal surface and help them to collect more ambient light during the night.

Eagles have a higher number of rods and cones in their retina, which are concentrated in a small area. The cones help in colour vision. A predator bird like the eagle, requires a higher amount of rods and cones in their eyes to spot their prey, even if they’re in camouflage. Hence, these features result in a better and faster perception of colour and vision.
