Their visual system is highly tuned to motion, making it difficult for predators to remain hidden by simply standing still.

They see blues and yellows well, while reds and oranges appear dull or black to them.

A deer's lens can't adjust focus quickly, so objects at different distances (near and far) can be equally blurry, but it's all in focus at once.

They lack the yellow filter humans have, allowing them to see ultraviolet (UV) light, which makes some synthetic fabrics glow to them.
