We share our reliance on sight more than scent with other primates. However, of all vertebrate animals, birds are the most dependent on sight. Flies have what are called 'compound eyes', but it's likely to be a myth that they see multiple images. However, if we had the eyes of a fly we would see television images as separate frames, since TV images are displayed at 25 frames per second, which for the rapid scanning eye of the fly is quite slow. Although the image can be misleading, our eyes are typically described in contrast to 'compound eyes' as being 'camera-style' eyes.
Animals differ in visual acuity.
Insects are short-sighted whereas a kestrel can spot a mouse from 1.5 km up. Hawks can spot prey 8 times further away than human beings can. The range of distances that animals can focus on is measured in dioptres. A child's range is about 14 dioptres, though an old person's is about 1 dioptre. Many creatures have poor accommodation or none.
