Docosahexaenoic acid preserves visual function by maintaining correct disc morphology in retinal photoreceptor cells

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) has essential roles in photoreceptor cells in the retina and is therefore crucial to healthy vision. Although the influence of dietary DHA on visual acuity is well known and the retina has an abundance of DHA-containing phospholipids (PL-DHA), the mechanisms associated wit...
