How well can moles see underground?

True moles (family Talpidae) have poor vision, as their tiny eyes are typically hidden within their fur. Because they spend most of their lives underground, they rely far more on other senses than on sight to navigate their environment.1

Instead of relying on vision, moles possess acute senses of hearing and touch. Their highly mobile, piglike muzzles are equipped with thousands of microscopic tactile structures known as Eimer’s organs, which allow them to detect and differentiate details of their surroundings and prey. Additionally, sensory hairs located on the muzzle and across the body help them perceive their environment.1

It is worth noting that the term "mole" is sometimes applied to other animals, such as the marsupial mole. These creatures also have poorly developed eyes that are virtually hidden in their fur, reflecting a similar evolutionary adaptation to a fossorial (burrowing) lifestyle.2
