Liu Ch’ung was a Chinese emperor that was featured in a episode of “Ripley’s Believe it or Not!” because he had two irises/pupils in each of his eyeballs.It’s basically a condition that is called “pupula duplex” — which means in Latin: “double pupil”
A common question that most people who encounter this condition are likely to ask are does a person with this condition see from pupils?
A person who has a double pupil may have the ability to increase the volume of visual information that is taken in when he sees. His focus may also be vastly improved. It is highly unlikely that this person will see separately in the same eye as the information will travel from the same photoreceptors in that particular eye. Since this condition has not been studied in any great detail it is not well understood how the brain would interpret the information sent by the eye of a person with a Pupula Duplex.
