[Effect of antioxidants with different antiradical activity on cornea preservation].

Changes of chemoluminescence intensity, collagen mucopolysaccaride content in the rabbit eye cornea were studied on 32 cornea of shinshilla eye conservated by dehydration under hipotenia (2 divided by 4 degrees C) for 60 days with the application of antioxidants (tocoferol, chlorhydrate 2-ethyl, 6-methyl-3-oxipyridine) having different antiradical activity. It is concluded that the application of natural antioxidant alpha-tocoferol having high antiradical activity is expedient for the conservation of cornea.
