• That statement is not accurate.
• Sharks are not the only known fish that can blink with both eyes.
• While some sharks, such as the great white shark, do have a protective membrane called a nictitating membrane that can cover their eyes for protection, there are other fish species that can also blink or have similar eye-covering mechanisms.
• For example, certain species of bony fish, like some types of catfish and flatfish, have the ability to blink with both eyes.
• They possess a specialized transparent eyelid or skin flap that can cover their eyes partially or completely.
• It’s important to note that not all fish have the ability to blink or have eyelids like humans do.
• Fish eyes have different adaptations and structures compared to those of mammals, and their eye protection mechanisms can vary among species.
• Therefore, the ability to blink or protect the eyes can differ significantly across the wide variety of fish species.
