Abstract
Corneal curvature was measured in 10 kittens from three litters and found to change significantly during postnatal development. From our data analysis, corneal curvature can be predicted from an animal's age and weight. To facilitate this prediciton for use in fitting contact lenses as occluders or diffusers in developmental studies, prediction equations are given as are expected weights of kittens as a function of age.Keywords
