Figure 1From: Establishment of monocular-limited photoreceptor degeneration models in rabbits Fundus photographs taken 2 weeks after treatment with PDT or intravitreal SNP. The control fundus is shown in A. PDT was performed with 0.5 mg/kg verteporfin and a halogen reflector lamp for 0 (B), 10 (C), 30 (D), or 60 (E) min. One hundred microliters of SNP (F: 0.1 mM, G: 0.5 mM, H: 1 mM) was injected intravitreously into a rabbit eye. Arrows and arrowheads indicate the pigmentation and the area of severe degeneration, respectively. Lesions are clearly demarcated by a broken line.Back to article page
