Transmission of light to the aging human retina: possible implications for age related macular degenerationJames Dillon
Department of Ophthalmology, College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University, 630 West 168th Street, New York, NY 10032, USA
Exp Eye Res 79:753-9. 2004..It was determined that the implantation of a standard IOL after cataract surgery increased the amount of light absorbed by A2-E by approximately a factor of five...
Transmission spectra of light to the mammalian retinaJ Dillon
Department of Ophthalmology, Columbia University, New York, NY, USA
Photochem Photobiol 71:225-9. 2000..Because some experiments employed a light tube that is used to illuminate the retina during vitrectomies, this method can be used to determine the transmission spectra of the anterior segment of humans in vivo...
