Summary
This paper discusses the evolution of the vertebrate eye, focusing on the structure and function of regional specializations in the retina.
Categories
Eye health: The paper discusses the structure and function of the retina, a key component of the eye, in various vertebrates.
Education and learning: The paper is educational in nature, providing a comprehensive review of the current understanding of retinal specializations in vertebrates.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses how different retinal specializations can affect visual behavioral performance, which is closely linked to cognitive function.
