Ring-shaped alkali burns of the rabbit cornea. Epithelial and endothelial changes

F Vrabec et al. Albrecht Von Graefes Arch Klin Exp Ophthalmol. .

Abstract

Rabbit corneas were burned by touching their surfaces with rings of Whatman No. 1 chromatographic paper soaked in 1N NaOH. The corneal epithelium and endothelium were studied by impregnating flat sections with McGovern's and Jabonero's silver stains. Immediate destruction as well as regeneration of both cellular layers is described.
