N2  - A test system is proposed to evaluate the ocular injury potential of propelled objects. The object in question is fired into a thin rubber pad, and the force of impact and the rise time are measured. For a set of test projectiles, the response of the system was shown to correlate with the likelihood of injury, as predicted by a mathematical model. The response was further related to ocular injury tolerance curves which were generated by the math model using data from impact injuries to real eyes.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
