EFFECTS OF THERMAL ENERGY ON RETINAL FUNCTION,

Abstract

The retina of pigmented grey chinchilla rabbits were exposed to the visible part of the spectrum to determine the retinal burn threshold. The study included the measurement of temperature rise at the center of the burn and various distances from it, evaluation of repeated subthreshold exposures, autoradiographic and histochemical studies of threshold and subthreshold lesions.
