[Biometric studies on the rabbit eye].

Echographic and ophthalmometric in vivo studies concerning the axial length of the bulbus, the depth of the anterior chamber, the thickness of the lens as well as the radius and the power of refraction of the cornea were carried out on 24 eyes of 12 male inbred rabbits. In addition, in vitro studies of the bulbi were also performed with regard to the axial and equatorial length, the different diameters of the cornea, the depth of the chamber angle and the sulcus ciliaris, and the diameter of the lens. Results are shown separately for right and left eyes.
