Abstract
The reaction of the cornea exposed in vitro to cigarette smoke depen_??_s on the time span between exposure and study of the tissues.
The corneae of hypercholesteremic rabbits are more sensitive to cigarette smoke than the corneae of normocholesteremic rabbits.
The corneae exposed to smoke from filter-tipped ciagrettes are affected less severely than the eorneae exposed to smoke from untipped cigarettes.
The corneal cells in vivo are affected by cigarette smoke mildly compared to that in vitro.
