Professor W. Blendinger, who made a well-documented study of the psychology of horses, explains:
1. No one can say that the vision of the horse is worse or better than ours. It is designed by nature to suit the needs of the animal in the wild and we can not have a limited idea of how horses see the world.
2. The horse can see its environment nearly as well from any angle, but I can not focus on objects just as we have.
3. The lateral position of the eyes hardly allows you to see objects that are in front of him, and deprived of the sense of volume.
4. Its ability to see so many things at the same time reduces its ability to focus on a specific object. From the point of view of the horse jumps, it is an interesting observation indicates that teach horses to look intently at obstacle.
5. Adaptation to see things with a very bright light or total darkness is a feature horse eye, but is not designed to adapt to changes in light and fast.
6. The ability to detect very slight movements is much more acute in the horse than in man.
7. It is not true that the horses do not distinguish colors. It is virtually certain that they can distinguish red, yellow, green and blue, although less accurate than we do also seem better distinguish the yellow and thegreen than the blue and the red.
