| Name: | solid lens vesicle |
|---|---|
| Synonyms: | immature lens, lens mass, lens vesicle, presumptive lens |
| Definition: | Portion of tissue that gives rise to the lens. The lens of the zebrafish forms by delamination of lens placodal cells and not through invagination. This results in a solid spherical mass as opposed to a hollow lens vesicle. Detachment of the solid lens vesicle of zebrafish at 24-26 hpf is accomplished in part by apoptosis, similar to mammals. |
