Zeran Li, as an undergraduate student in biological sciences, led a research team that uncovered an enzyme's role in the regulation of eye size in the fish. If the enzyme's role is similar in human eyes, it could be relevant to human vision problems, such as nearsightedness and farsightedness. “New insights into the process of eye-size control in zebrafish may help our understanding of the regulation of eye size in humans," said Li, Refractive errors affect 3.8 billion people worldwide, according to the International Center for Eye Education.
