[Comparative study of reproduction and Scheimpflug's photography of the crystalline lens].

Two types of lens photography are compared in the same patients: photography according to Schaimpflüger and reproduction biomicrophotography with subsequent densitometry of the negatives. The authors find Schaimpflüger's photography preferable, its advantages consisting in convenience of the procedure and possibility to make standard pictures. An experienced worker can make high-quality images of the lens optic section with a slit photographic lamp, this permitting an objective assessment of changes in the optic densities of different lenticular laminae.
