本文对光的衍射和散射理论作了简单的讨论。这一理论被用来解释角膜透明的微观结构，并导致预测在肿胀、不透明的角膜中会发现特征性的形态学变化。具体地说，可以预期，不透明角膜在与光的波长相当或大于光的波长的距离上，其折射率会出现明显的波动。检查病理手术标本的所有层显示形态变化，这与该理论的预测一致。
A simple discussion of the theory of the diffraction and scattering of light is presented. This theory is used to explain corneal transparency in terms of microscopic structure, and leads to the prediction that characteristic morphological changes ivould be found in swollen, opaque corneas. Specifically, it is to be expected that opaque corneas will show marked fluctuations in the index of refraction over distances comparable to, or larger than, the wavelength of light. Examination of all layers of pathological surgical specimens demonstrated morphological changes which were consistent with predictions of this theory.
