Abstract
This critical survey of studies on the fluorescence of human eye lenses covers basic problems of metrology and their relation to comparative measurements on extracts, on in vivo, and on in vitro material. Attention is drawn to the effects of lenticular refraction and absorbance, and to potential photic involvement on the part of ambient illumination. The extent to which fluorescence may interfere with vision is also reviewed.
