Light pollution: The possible consequences of excessive illumination on retina
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016-02)
Light is the visible part of the electromagnetic radiation within a range of 380-780 nm; (400-700 on primates retina). In vertebrates, the retina is adapted to capturing light photons and transmitting this information to ...
Bacterial lipopolysaccharide protects the retina from light-induced damage
(Wiley, 2012-07)
Light-induced damage is a widely used model to study retinal degeneration. We examined whether bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) protects the retina against light-induced injury. One day before intense light exposure for ...
Oxidative stress in retinal degeneration promoted by constant LED light
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2019-01)
Light pollution by artificial light, might accelerate retinal diseases and circadian asynchrony. The excess of light exposure is a growing problem in societies, so studies on the consequences of long-term exposure to low ...
Assessing adhesive remnant removal and enamel damage with ultraviolet light: An in-vitro study
(Elsevier B.V., 2017-02-01)
Introduction: Our objective was to assess the amounts of adhesive remnant and enamel damage when removing composite under conventional lighting and ultraviolet (UV) light. Methods: Thirty-eight premolars were divided into ...
Non-visual photopigments effects of constant light-emitting diode light exposure on the inner retina of Wistar rats
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2017-08)
The retina is part of the central nervous system specially adapted to capture light photons and transmit this information to the brain through photosensitive retinal cells involved in visual and non-visual activities. ...
