Visual System Adaptation

Visual System Adaptation is a biological process in deep-sea fish whereby the visual system undergoes structural and functional modifications to enhance light sensitivity and spectral discrimination under extreme low-light conditions, distinguishing it from superficial visual adjustments by involving heritable or developmental changes in retinal morphology and photoreceptor composition.
