Abstract
The eyes of the higher Cephalopods particularly those of the octopus, are compared with the human eye to try to determine whether they are legitimate examples of that rather vague, innocuous evolutionary principle of convergence. Some similarities and differences are explored with the conclusion that in the created order we observe similar over-all blue prints being used for similar purposes, with the necessary modifications for special conditions and/or environments, the eye of the octopus and that of man being one example.
