title: [Retinal function test of eyes with opaque refractive media].
abstract: The characteristics of the laser interference fringes of opaque lenses were studied by the laser speckle method. After studies with the opaque lenses in the laboratory, the method was employed in the clinic. The preoperative laser interference fringe visual acuities were compared with the postoperative corrected visual acuities in 65 eyes with mature cataract and 8 eyes with cornea opacities. The authors concluded that the laser speckle interferometry estimated the retinal function of eyes with opaque refractive media quantitatively and it demonstrated practical value in the clinic.
