Electrical injuries to the eye

Albrecht von Graefes Archiv f�r Klinische und Experimentelle Ophthalmologie, 1975
The effect of electric current on the eyes of experimental animals was studied. An apparatus was constructed to allow single and multiple shock exposures from 0 to 600 volts at variable exposure times. The current was measured on a Tectronex Storage Oscilloscope. Mature Dutch rabbits were used as experimental animals. When rabbit eyes were subjected to
