[Experimental studies on ocular tissues taken from mice of electrocution under the electron microscope].
OBJECTIVE
To observe morphological characteristics in ocular tissues with electrocution under the electron microscope.


METHODS
Fourteen mice are divided into two groups, the experimental group and the control group. In the experimental group, all of the 9 mice are killed by electricity (220 v, 50 Hz), with the heads connected to anode and the right leg to cathode. In the control group, all of the 5 mice are beheaded. Eyes fixed in glutaraldehyde, are split into two halves. One is observed under the electron microscope, and the other is observed morphological characteristics by H-E stain, which has been published.


RESULTS
In the experimental group, morphological characteristics of the components of eyes present in varied degrees under the electron microscope, but not obvious in control group.


CONCLUSIONS
It can be drawn that these certain morphological characteristics in the experimental group might be helpful to the treatment of electrical injury.
