Marsupial ophthalmology.
This article discusses ocular conditions found in marsupials. Marsupials are unique models for developmental biology because of their immature state of development at birth. There is considerable variation in the ocular evolution of marsupials, largely in response to their unique diversification. Many marsupials and their eyes have been studied.
