Refractive indices of the rat retinal layers.

Abstract:

:The refractive indices in various rat retinal layers, based on the total dry mass concentration, ranged from 1.369 to 1.385. The ratios of the refractive indices of neighboring retinal layers were near unity. This finding suggests that light passes through the rat retina without much refraction.
