Abstract
The spectral transmission characteristics of corneal and lenticular opacities were measured on a double rocksalt monochromater. Transparence was found to be maximum in the near infra-red region. The anterior region of the eye can be observed despite an opaque cornea by projecting an infra-red image on to a photo-electric cathode, and then converting this into a visible image on a fluorescent screen using an image converter (14,000A).Keywords
