Low ocular rigidity in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta.

Abstract:

:Sixteen patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) have undergone a thorough eye examination. These patients had statistically significantly lower ocular rigidity measurements than a group of normal volunteers matched on age, sex, and refractive error. In addition, the corneal diameter and length of the eyeball was smaller in OI patients than that in controls. Possible correlations of low ocular rigidity with biochemical changes in scleral collagen await further investigation.

  • Cone visual cell degeneration in ground squirrel retina: disruption of morphology and cyclic nucleotide metabolism by lodoacetic acid.

    abstract::Photoreceptor degeneration was induced in the cone-dominant retina of the ground squirrel by intracardiac injection of iodoacetic acid. Morphology was examined and cyclic nucleotide levels were determined in retinas taken at various times between 35 min and 11 days after injection. Degenerating cone cells were first d...
