Abstract

The corneas of pigs' eyes were irradiated with ablative levels of 193, 248, and 308 nm and the spectra of the produced light recorded. In all cases there was an appreciable amount of uv light produced in the 300-400 nm band. The 193 nm irradiation exhibited a threshold at 0.5 J/cm²; markedly different spectra were produced below and above that threshold.
