Organizing and summarizing search results for youPhotophores are glandular organs that appear as luminous spots on various marine animals, including fish and cephalopods. They are used by fish to produce light either by chemical reaction or through symbiotic bacteria capable of bioluminescence. Most fish that use photophores live in the deep sea where light from the surface is limited. Photophores are often arranged in lines or other patterns over the body surface to produce a characteristic display of light. They contain the light-producing chemicals or symbiotic bacteria responsible for the bioluminescence.3 Sources

Photophore - Wikipedia
A photophore is a glandular organ that appears as luminous spots on marine animals, including fish and cephalopods. The organ can be simple, or as complex as the human eye, equipped with lenses, shutters, color filters, and reflectors; unlike an eye, however, it is optimized to produce light, not absorb it.

The bioluminescence can be produced from compounds during the digestion of prey, from specialized mitochondrial cells in the organism called See more
