Eye of War Front

Horse eyes are among the largest of all land mammals. Only whales, seals, and ostriches have larger eyes. Horses’ large eyes, with large corneas, allow a significant amount of light to enter. Their pupils can dilate to an area three times larger than a cat or dog and six times that of a human.

Horses have a nearly panoramic field of vision due to their eyes being on each side of their head, estimated to be around 350 degrees with only a small blind spot immediately behind them. This means they can see almost all the way around them without moving their heads.

Here is the eye  of War Front at Claiborne Farm.
