Aside from the typical saurian characteristics mentioned in the introduction, there are certain distinguishing though non-universal traits found in lizards. The subject of this section will be the various modifications found in certain organs of the lizards.
The first structure to discuss is the lacertilian eye. The eye of a lizard may be extremely well developed with functional lids and color perception, or the eyes might be concealed under a layer of skin, making them useless. The pupil could be elliptical or round. In the Gekkonidae, at least, many forms possess compound eyeballs. In the Chamaeleontidae the eyes are covered by a thick membrane of skin with a small aperture near the middle. Each eyeball can move independently of the other, a trait not wholly confined to the chameleons but found in a few other lizard genera as well (i.e., Calotes).
