Basic biology FAIL:

“The fish had somehow co-opted chlorophyll, most likely from bacteria in their food, and turned it into a vision enhancer”

Acquired traits are not inherited.

If it ain’t in the genes, it doesn’t pass to the offspring.

Discover is a magazine of pop science, not true science. The depth and reliability of their articles leaves much to be desired. Forget the eye drops.

It was chlorophyll.

So then should the nightowls amongst us eat those leafy green vegetables or just stuff them into our eye balls???

Let’s just hope the drops are cheaper than a night vision monocle, which I’ve wanted for a couple of years but still cannot afford.

In the 1990s, marine biologist Ron Douglas of City University London discovered that, unlike other deep-sea fish, the dragonfish Malacosteus niger can perceive red light. Douglas was surprised when he isolated the chemical responsible for absorbing red: It was chlorophyll. “That was weird,” he says. The fish had somehow co-opted chlorophyll, most likely from bacteria in their food, and turned it into a vision enhancer.

I'm already seeing red from all of Obama's green crap.
