Evident Corporation fiberoptic ring illuminator
Effects of AJE and aucubin on tear secretion and corneal irregularity in dry eye rats. ( A ) Tear volume was measured using the phenol red thread test. Tear volume was expressed in millimeters of thread that became wet by the tear and turned red in color. ( B ) Reflected images of a white ring from the <t>fiberoptic</t> ring illuminator of a stereomicroscope. ( C ) Corneal irregularity was graded according to the number of distorted quarters in the reflected white ring as follows: 0, no distortion; 1, distortion in one quarter; 2, distortion in two quarters; 3, distortion in three quarters; 4, distortion in all four quarters; 5, severe distortion, in which no ring could be recognized. The values in bar graph represent the mean ± SE. n = 7. * p < 0.05 vs. normal rat, # p < 0.05 vs. vehicle treated dry eye rat.
