Relationship between eyelash length L/W and Reynolds number. Measurements of animal eyelashes are shown alongside optimal values obtained from simulations, experiments and scaling theory. The vertical bars represent the range of eyelash lengths within 10% of their optimal values, estimated by a spline curve-fitting of the experimental and numerical data. (Online version in colour.)
