For brain development, chemical ingredients – cannabinoids are used. As soon as it enters your eyes, it will boost all the cells, which detect light. So, to test this, few scientists came together and started experimenting on tadpoles and weed water. Because of the transparent properties of tadpoles, they were used for this experiment. Scientists started to scan this creature’s brain to see what kind of effects cannabis will have on them. Finally, it was revealed that because of smoking weed, cannabinoids are activated, which in turn enhanced the eyesight. When compared to a normal person, the eyes will be actually dilated larger for a stoner.

It has been proved that cannabis is not only effective in treating diseases like epilepsy and skin problems, but also great for overcoming eye problems and enhancing vision.
