Fecha de publicación: | 2023 | Publicación seriada: | Animal | Resumen: | The short bibliography referring to the anatomy and pathology of the eyeball of turtles poses a challenge for veterinarians and conservationists given the increasing presence of this type of turtle in veterinary and wildlife centres. Although they nest on land, these animals spend a large part of their lives in the ocean, which entails a series of eye adaptations such as well-developed nictitating membranes, palpebral scales, highly sensitive corneas, or sclerotic rings to protect the eye. In our study, we performed a morphometric analysis of the loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) eyeball and its internal structures using advanced imaging techniques such as computed tomography (CT). To the best of the authors’ knowledge, there have been no studies published that describe the CT intraocular measurements of presumed normal loggerhead turtle eyes. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10553/121924 | ISSN: | 2076-2615 | DOI: | 10.3390/ani13061016 | Fuente: | Animals [EISSN 2076-2615], v. 13 (6), 1016, (Marzo 2023) |
