目的：比较母鸡和鹌鹑角膜之间的组织学，形态学和生物物理测量，以确定它们中的哪一个更适合用作动物模型的研究成角膜屈光surgery.MATERIAL和METHODS：进行了一项研究，使用生物物理测量的角膜（曲率，厚度，折射，和轴向长度）的20只动物（10只母鸡和10只鹌鹑）。然后准备角膜进行组织学分析，在显微镜light.RESULTS：分析表明，这两组具有相同的角膜层数的人角膜和明显的Bowman层。鸡的角膜厚度和眼轴长度分别为225.3± 18.4 μ m和12.8±0.25mm，均大于鹌鹑（P
AIM: To compare the histological, morphological and the biophysical measurements between hen and quail corneas, in order to determine which of them were better suited for use as an animal model for research into corneal refractive surgery.MATERIAL AND METHODS: A study was performed using the biophysical measurements of the cornea (curvature, thickness, refraction, and axial length) of 20 animals (10 hens and 10 quails). The corneas were then prepared for histological analysis under microscopy light.RESULTS: The analysis showed that both groups have the same number of corneal layers as the human cornea and with an evident Bowman's layer. The thickness of the hen cornea and axial length of the eye, 225.3±18.4mum and 12.8±0.25mm, respectively, were larger than that of the quail (P
