Functional assessment of laser irradiation. Annual progress report 1 Jul 76-30 Jun 77

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6742386
Changes in rhesus spectral and white light acuity following brief (100 msec) laser (647 nm) exposure have been measured. Permanent loss in spectral acuity occurred at an exposure level where white light acuity was still recoverable. These data suggest that postexposure spectral acuity functions reflect altered foveal function rather than total foveal disruption.
