Ultrastructural, histochemical and biochemical studies of the melanin metabolism in pallid mouse eye.

abstract：:Posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) and epiretinal membranes occur in a number of vitreoretinal diseases. We have developed an experimental model in which we can provide the morphologic correlation of these dynamic processes. The method provides the opportunity to study epiretinal membrane formation with the scanning ...
