Basically, scientists took baby Grotto Salamanders and kept one group of them in constant darkness and another group in constant light!. The group kept in the dark had smaller eyes, degeneration of eye colour ("epithelial pigment"), and impaired eye movement ("optomotor responses")!.
I guess my answer isn't significantly different from some of the others', but at least you now have a source for your info!. Good luck on the book!Www@Answer-Health@Com

if you were in the dark, completely dark, from birth your eyes would never fully develop sight!. Just as a child born with cataracts can not develop eyesight due to nothing getting to the brain!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
If there is no light, there is nothing to reflect!. Your eyes would never see!. You probably would be wondering why you have two wierd organs under your forehead!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
