The role of eye accommodation in the depth perception of common toads.

M Jordan, G Luthardt, C Meyer-Naujoks, G Roth.   

Abstract

Distance estimation in prey catching was as exact in monocular toads (Bufo bufo (L.)) as in binocular ones. Application of Atropine or Miotic had no significant effect on binocular animals, whereas in monocular toads it made accurate distance estimation impossible. The accommodative state of the eye is decisive for depth estimation of monocular, but not of binocular toads.
