  • Title: [Long-term investigations of the influence of corticosteroids on lens transparency in rats (author's transl)].
    Author: Koch HR.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1976 May; 168(05):692-5. PubMed ID: 822236.
    Abstract:
    Both a systemic cortisol treatment (10 mg/kg, daily, s.c.) for 275 days and a local administration of prednisolone eye drops (1%, 4 times daily) for 150 days failed to induce morphologic lens changes in wistar rats. Possible reasons for the different reactions to steroid treatment of human and animal lenses are discussed.
