Abstract

The present study deals with a prospective investigation on the optical density of the eye lenses of 32 volunteers with initially normal eyes (mean age 65 years) over a period of 3.5 years. The negatives of the Scheimpflug photographs (Topcon SL-45) were evaluated by linear densitometry in 3 measure planes (Joyce Loebl 3CS). The evaluation of the coefficient of correlation, the representation of the regression straight line as well as the evaluation of the percent changes in lens density showed that during the observation period of 3.5 years a minimum increase in density took place mainly in the anterior cortex.
