Firstly most UV perceiving organisms only perceive far UV (~300-400nm) which is less damaging. There are different opsins, which get activated by different wavelengths. Like other light UV is perceived by opsins, sensitive to UV wavelength [1, 2]. I am not sure about this but opsin sensitivity to UV must be high so that low irradiation is sufficient for ...
