How do birds handle bright lights?

Question

I don’t know a lot about birds, but I do know that they generally have better vision than us humans. But… when they fly high, the sunlight must be blinding to them, right? Especially with their heightened sense to lights. Some species of birds even fly above clouds, which must reflect a lot of sunlight too.

​

I, a human male, can’t even go out in the summer without sunglasses on…

Answer 1

They don’t have “better vision” … And “birds” is really vague term describing thousands of different species

But to answer your question… Same way as us humans do… By adjusting eyes to let less light in
