  • Title: [Studies of the changes in crystalline lens transparency in rabbits with experimental cataract].
    Author: Prost M, Gerkowicz K, Katski W, Gerkowicz M, Jedrzejewski D.
    Journal: Klin Oczna; 1991 Dec; 93(12):321-4. PubMed ID: 1819665.
    Abstract:
    Changes of the transparency of lenses were checked by means of in vivo spectrophotometry of the eye ball and by light transmission through extracted lenses in the course of experimental early cataract in rabbits caused by naphthalen. The results of investigations show that changes of lens transparency evaluated by means of in vivo spectrophotometry of the eye appear earlier than the clinically seen opacity. It speaks for the advisability of undertaking of further studies on the possibility of utilizing this method for detection of precataractous conditions in humans.
