TY - JOUR PY - 2013// TI - Blinded by the light: Retinal phototoxicity in the context of safety studies JO - Toxicologic pathology A1 - Mudry, Maria Cristina De Vera A1 - Kronenberg, Sven A1 - Komatsu, Shun-ichiro A1 - Aguirre, Gustavo D. SP - 813 EP - 825 VL - 41 IS - 6 N2 - In this review, we discuss concepts and mechanisms of light damage and indicate how these might relate to preclinical safety studies. As well, we provide recommendations for evaluating the retina and developing protocols for evaluating a potential light damage mechanism in studies where retinal degeneration is observed.
