Anatomopathological Characterization of the Main Ocular Lesions in Green Turtles ( <scp> <i>Chelonia mydas</i> </scp> ) Along the Northern Coast of Bahia, Brazil
This study highlights the significance of understanding eye diseases as they can directly impact the management and preservation of sea turtles. This is particularly true for species in which the visual system plays a crucial role in feeding and migration. Therefore, this data can assist in promoting and implementing preventive and therapeutic measures for the conservation of these animals.
