Have you ever wondered if animals wear eyeglasses like people do? Let’s find out about some animals and their eyes!
Owls don’t wear eyeglasses. They have special eyes that help them see really well at night. This is important because they hunt for food like mice when it’s dark.
Goats don’t need eyeglasses either. They have good eyesight, especially at night. Most goats have brown eyes, but some have yellow eyes!
Butterfly fish are clever! They have two real eyes on their face and two fake eyes on their back to confuse other fish that might want to eat them. No eyeglasses needed here!
Scallops are sea creatures with lots of eyes—about 100 blue ones! They use these eyes to see things that move slowly by them in the water.
Earthworms don’t have eyes like we do. Instead, they have special spots that help them sense light and dark. They don’t need eyeglasses at all!
Monkeys have great eyesight, which helps them find food and swing through trees. They don’t wear eyeglasses because their eyes work just fine!
Sometimes, kids might have trouble seeing clearly at school. If that happens, they might visit a special eye doctor called an ophthalmologist. This doctor can check their eyes and see if they need eyeglasses.
People wear different kinds of glasses for different reasons. Sunglasses protect our eyes from the sun, goggles help us see underwater, and ski goggles keep our eyes safe from the wind.
Some people can’t see well and might use seeing-eye dogs or read with their fingers using Braille. Others might use magnifying glasses or special tablets to help them see better.
Many people wear eyeglasses. Do you or someone in your family wear them? If you like stories, you can visit a library to find lots of fun books to read!

Animal Eye Exploration: Go on a nature walk with a parent or guardian and try to spot different animals. Observe their eyes and think about how they might see the world. Do you think they see well at night like owls or goats? Draw a picture of one animal you saw and imagine what the world looks like through their eyes.
Make Your Own “Animal Eyes”: Create a simple craft to learn about how different animals see. Use paper plates to make “owl eyes” by cutting out two large circles and coloring them to look like owl eyes. You can also make “butterfly fish eyes” by drawing two real eyes and two fake eyes on a piece of paper. Discuss with a friend or family member why these animals have such special eyes.
Eye Spy Game: Play a game of “Eye Spy” with a friend or family member, but with a twist! Instead of using colors, describe things based on how different animals might see them. For example, “I spy something that an owl might see at night” or “I spy something that a butterfly fish might try to trick.” This will help you think about how animals use their eyes in different ways.
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript, removing any unnecessary elements and making it more concise:
