Analysis of visual recovery after optic nerve crush in adult zebrafish KU Leuven
Zebrafish can successfully regenerate axons after optic nerve crush (ONC). Here, we describe two different behavioral tests to map visual recovery: the dorsal light reflex (DLR) test and the optokinetic response (OKR) test. The DLR is based on the tendency of fish to orientate their back to a light source and it can be tested by rotating a flashlight around the dorso-lateral axis of the animal or by measuring the angle between the left/right ...
