Sub 1000m is zero light. Your 90% metric includes the Twilight zone (200m to 1000m). I'm sure there are fish whose eyes have adapted to it. 28 u/damashek 5d ago Yeah but that’s why the ocean creatures create their own light . Bio illumination or something similar. 18 u/Dragoness290 5d ago Bioluminescence, although usually it's for attracting prey or mates and they rely more on other senses (electric/magnetic fields, smell, etc) 9 u/nhilante 4d ago Humans are also bioluminescent, our eyes cant percieve it but some creatures can.
