UV and IR Flashcards
1
Q
Retinal burns have been reported after to exposure to 750-1400nm
such as solar retinopathy
A
IR - A
2
Q
exposure to 1400-3000nm results to corneal and lens epithelium absorption
corneal opacity, aqueous flare, cataract
A
IR - B
3
Q
the cornea absorption results in opacification, especially the stroma due to thermal photocoagulation of corneal proteins
A
IR - C
4
Q
315-400 nm results to lens epithelium defects and nucleus cataract
A
UV - A
5
Q
the corneal epithelium and conjunctiva absorbs the wavelength between 200-315 nm
A
