I just read an article that explained how there was research back in 2010 that involved 31 kittens having their eyes sewn shut for different periods of time to study how the brain responds to sensory deprivation and to discover a long-term cure for lazy eyes in children.
"Cats had to be used for this study because apart from primates they are the only mammals with frontally positioned eyes and therefore the only animals to develop severe amblyopia similar to humans under similar circumstances."
Does that make it ok?
