The second-order corrections to the Kerman-McManus-Thaler optical potential for the elastic scattering of protons from {sup 16}O are calculated at 135, 200, and 300 MeV incident energies, paying particular attention to the nonlocalities inherent in the potential. It is shown that these effects result in a significant reduction in the proton-target absorption.
