[Relative size of collagen body-peptides of the human cornea in the normal state and in keratoconus].

Recombination-kinetic study was carried out of the ratio between collagen secondary structures in human eye cornea of different age in the norm and in keratoconus. It has been shown that in both normal and pathologically changed cornea the portion of peptide chain in telopeptides is not changed within the age interval studied.
