Damage to the retina is the leading cause of blindness in humans, affecting millions of people around the world. Unfortunately, the retina is one of the few tissues we humans can’t grow back.
Unlike us, other animals such as zebrafish are able to regenerate this tissue that’s so crucial to our power of sight.
