Abstract:
In the dynamics of a chronic experiment and after it, the state of the cornea and blood circulation in the uveal tract were investigated, along with the morphological studies of the occipital areas of the brain (area 17) and calculations of the thermal processes in the cornea tissues. Results of the complex studies confirmed that opacification of the cornea was not induced by the damaging heat effect of the CO2-laser irradiation with the energy of illumination at 4.2 x 10(-2) Wt.cm-2 in 120 day-long period.
