Go to the Geckos Unlimited web site. He has great close up pics of eyes.

Tokays do have 4 or 5 openings in their pupil. The reason for this is to make it easier for them to close and open them. A split pupil allows for much more diversity in terms of amount of light coming in. Uroplatus I believe is the same construction (or similar).
