How Night Vision Really Works And Why Humans Don’t Glow at Night?


Night vision is often shown as glowing eyes in movies. In reality, it works very differently. This comic explains how human and cat eyes behave in low light and why seeing at night has nothing to do with glowing.


Vertical comic explaining how night vision works, showing a cat and human discussing why humans don’t glow at night and see less colour in darkness.
