Yellow perch protect their eyes primarily through a nictitating membrane, a translucent layer that can cover the eye when needed. This membrane helps shield the eyes from debris and potential injury while allowing the fish to maintain visibility. Additionally, yellow perch have a reflective layer behind the retina, known as the tapetum lucidum, which enhances their vision in low-light conditions, indirectly contributing to eye protection by allowing them to navigate their environment more effectively.
