چکیده

AT the present time jaundiced eyes are frequently rejected as sources of donor material for corneal grafting or for vitreous implantation. One reason for not using these eyes is their discoloration (Edwards and Locke, 1960). This investigation was undertaken in the hope that adequate reasons for or against the use of jaundiced eyes would be discovered. The bilirubin content of the ocular fluids and tissues of jaundiced and non-jaundiced subjects was measured, and that of the ocular fluids of jaundiced and non-jaundiced albino rabbits was also determined.

Study of Optical Models Regarding the Human Eye

Introduction: Until now, many models have been presented for optical study of the human eye. In recent years, surgery on the anterior section of the eye (such as cataract and photo-refractive surgery) has increased, so a study on the optics of the eye and evaluation of vision quality has become more important. Material and Methods: In this article, some of these models are considered. They incl...
