Answer:

Their vision underwater is better than a humans, but inferior on land. Lenses are enlarged and almost round, adapted for focusing on light that is refracted upon entering water. They use the light to continue swimming which is why researchers think they use visual cues because of how quickly they react to the amount of light in the water
