PECULIARITIES OF CATARACT DEVELOPMENT IN RABBITS WITH EXPERIMENTAL DIABETES

Leus N. F., Ben Abdallah Anis Ben Slimane Odessa, Ukraine

There were studied signs of development of light cataract in animals with modeled diabetes. The experimental studies made on 42 rabbits established that development of the diabetic process is not accompanied by occurrence of the pathological changes in the lens. At the same time there was established reliable signs of lens opacity and development of the cataract process under the conditions of diabetes developed in animals exposed to light of high intensity. On this basis the authors consider presence of diabetes as a probable cocataractogenous factor.
