Ring-shaped alkali burns of the rabbit cornea. II. Early changes of the corneal stroma.
Corneas of 32 rabbits were coagulated in a circular zone of 1 mm width and 10 mm diameter. The results of the experiment showed sharply limited injury throughout the entire depth of the cornea without lateral diffusion. The reactions of the corneal stroma during the first three days are described and discussed.
