In a large tamarin and marmoset experimental colony, 526 animals were examined by biomicroscopy and ophthalmoscopy for the presence of ocular disease. In 109 animals, there were 147 abnormalities involving the eyelids, cornea, iris, lens, retina or optic nerve. Most abnormalities were unimportant in terms of ocular function, but a few did cause loss of vision and included diffuse, progressive retinal atrophy and a severely traumatized globe. The survey indicated that while usually minor, ocular disease in the tamarin and marmoset was widespread.
在一个大型绢毛猴和狨猴实验种群中，通过生物显微镜检查和检眼镜检查对526只动物进行了眼部疾病检查。在109只动物中，有147处异常，涉及眼睑、角膜、虹膜、晶状体、视网膜或视神经。就眼功能而言，大多数异常并不重要，但有少数确实导致了视力丧失，包括弥漫性、进行性视网膜萎缩和严重受创的眼球。该调查表明，虽然绢毛猴和狨猴的眼部疾病通常较轻，但却很普遍。
