title: Corneal sensitivity in albinos.
abstract: The study reports measurements of corneal sensitivity in albino eyes obtained with a Cochet-Bonnet aesthesiometer. It was found to be much less sensitive (150% on average) than in a group of normal eyes. This result may have some bearing on the correction of albinos by contact lenses.
