    Abstract

    The action of several amines suspected of causing hazy vision in humans has been studied in rabbit eyes. The disturbance appears to be brought about by a direct action of the amine on the cornea. It is recommended that workers exposed to this hazard should be warned that hazy vision is but a forerunner of a more serious conditon.
