Comparison of the human and zebrafish eye. (a) Comparison of the human and zebrafish eye: Human and zebrafish eyes mainly differ in lens shape and space between the lens and retina. (b) Comparison of human and zebrafish retinal structure: Schematic representation of the differences of the retinal layers between human and zebrafish retina. Information on human retinal thickness taken from Yousef and Finger, 25 and for zebrafish derived from http://zfatlas.psu.edu/view.php?atlas=18&s=207; zebrafish atlas, 12 months post-fertilized male transverse section. All quantifications are approximates only and may differ between individuals and areas within the retina. RNFL, retinal nerve fibre layer.
