摘要
The widespread use of high intensity laser devices suggests the possibility of ocular injury from a laser beam transmitted through the sclera. Using human autopsy eyes and pigmented rabbit eyes, the spectral reflection and transmission characteristics of the sclera, choroid, and retina were measured by means of a spectrophotometer. Values obtained over the spectral range from 500 to 2,600 mμ showed little variation among different specimens. Measurements made in human and rabbit eyes were qualitatively and quantitatively similar. The results obtained at 694.3 and 1,060 mμ were confirmed by a second method, using ruby and neodymium lasers as the radiation source. © 1968.
