[Pathogenesis of disorders of transparency of the optic medium of the eye. V. Ultrastructure of lens in chalcosis using scanning electron microscopy].
The authors investigated ultrastructural changes of the rabbit lens after experimentally induced chalcosis. From the results it may be concluded that the toxic actions of copper are mainly in the lenticular capsule and epithelium, although they are also apparent in the lenticular fibres.
