Eye and Associated Glands

The eye is susceptible to adverse toxic effects by direct application, inadvertent ocular contact, or systemic exposure to chemicals or their metabolites. Although the albino rat is a less than ideal model for ocular toxicity studies, it has gained popularity for specific applications and may be the...

description The eye is susceptible to adverse toxic effects by direct application, inadvertent ocular contact, or systemic exposure to chemicals or their metabolites. Although the albino rat is a less than ideal model for ocular toxicity studies, it has gained popularity for specific applications and may be the first species in which the ocular toxicity of a systemically administered xenobiotic becomes evident. This chapter reviews the embryology, anatomy, and physiology of the eye and associated glands and describes common nonneoplastic and neoplastic lesions encountered in laboratory rats.
