Abstract
We describe an in vivo measurement technique for determining the transmission of light through the human eyelid and present data from three human subjects. The relevance of the transmission measurements are discussed in relation to (1) clinical electrophysiology and (2) the effects of light on the developing visual system.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
