did you know Frog's have Eyes that help with eating

Frogs use their eyes to help them swallow — their eyes press down into their mouths to push food down.

They have excellent night vision thanks to rod-rich retinas.

Their eyes sit high on the head, giving them a wide field of view, even while half-submerged.

Frogs can see colour in low light better than humans.

Did you know that a Dragonfly is the 360° Vision Master!

Dragonflies have up to 30,000 lenses in each compound eye.

They can see almost 360° around them without turning their heads.

They detect movement faster than any other insect — up to 300 frames per second (humans see about 60).

They can see UV light, helping them find mates and navigate.

AUTOLOGOUS EYE SERUM

An autologous eye serum, also known as autologous serum eye drops (ASEDs) or serum tears,

is a custom-made eye drop medication created from a patient's own blood.

This treatment is used for severe dry eye syndrome and other ocular surface diseases,

especially when patients have not found relief with conventional artificial tears.
