Assuming this isn't the lead up to a bad joke...
I'd say there's animals that spend their whole lives in pitch dark caves that have evolved without eyes. I don't know any specific examples though.
no its no joke , im trying to think of one , was thinking about evolution and how animals that developed eyes where better at hunting avoiding danger etc so the ones with out eyes died out , but i was wondering did any species survive .there is allways an exception .
i know ive way too much time on my hands :D
Some salamanders that live in dark caves and certain fish that live near deep Ocean beds have no eyes! This is because they do not need eyes, since in light never ever reaches them! Some of them have rudimentary eyes with permanently closed eyelids over them, while in some the eyes are totally absent.:)
the 3 blind mice?
They still had eyes though. :DQuote:

Or is that just that they can't see where they're leading the league?
we know about the fish allright , im trying to think of land living animals out in the sunshine ,that survived with out eyes .
aparently etes are mutated light sensitive brain cells that evolved into eyes , so surely if this is the case there would be evidence of animal with no eyes
good thinking out of you ,ill be able to sleep tonight !Quote:

something ill never forget is that earthworms reproduction and digestive system is the same thing, now why didn't they make women like that?

But seriously, this is one of the most bizarre questions ever on a football forum -- yet, as no one will know an easy answer and no one wants to admit he doesn't know, it's fascinating to stay thinking until I found one :)
whatever they're called, the flesh-eating species in the film "The decent" were completely blind and physically adapted to eternal darkness ;) (still ****ed cause Nora-Jane Noone kept her clothing on in this film though)
I think that there are certain breeds of bats that are genuinely blind. Most bats have poor eyesight anyway but there are one or two bat species that are fully blind. Saw something about them on one of those Animal Planet channels a good while ago.
A Fly?
Is that an animal?
Incidentally flly is a good word for Hangman.
Noone gets it in time.
Flies have eyes.
A fly with its eyes cut out?
craggles dont have eyes for sure.

Do moles have eyes? probably!
Doesn't a fly even have the special sort of eye that can see a very wide angle? Don't know the English word for it, but several insects have it...
Mussels don't have eyes. They grow against rocks, so that makes them a non-sea-animal, so they qualify for this thread :D
Mussels change gender every 10 minutes. Imagine a slow shag, one second the mussel is loving a beautiful female mussel, the next second he's doing a gay act :eek:
Do all types of spiders have eyes?
This one has anyway: http://physics.open.ac.uk/~dbroadhu/spider-trap.gif
I thought they were plant life!:DQuote:

They don't have eyes.
After some googling, it appears moles do have eyes.

Mole Eyes
The eyes of a mole are very tiny and, in the opinion of most experts, serve only a limited function. They are comprised of a thin membrane around the snout which enables them to sense light and little else. There is no evidence to suggest moles use them to locate their prey or to navigate.
i dont think there is , i cant even find evidence of any every existing :(
darwin you tw at what are you going on about :D :D
surely and eye is very complex to have evolved so early ?
The fact that they're common across all groups of animals (reptiles, fish, birds, mammals, etc.) would indicate that eyes developed before all those groups became distinct.Quote:
