title: Small-angle light-scattering patterns of corneas of different species.
abstract: Light-scattering patterns of corneas of different species have been obtained. The different small-angle light-scattering (SALS) patterns were classified into four groups on the basis of the angular dependence of the intensity of light scattered in the I+ and I modes. At present, only two types of patterns can be explained on the basis of theoretical models. The need to develop a general model that can account for all four types of SALS patterns is discussed.
