Abstract The cornea is a transparent non-vascular tissue that is exposed to the external environment. It protects the interior ocular tissues by providing a robust physical barrier and it is considered the first line of defense against excessive ultraviolet radiation (UVR Ultraviolet (UV) light is an electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength shorter than that of visible light, but longer than x-rays Ultraviolet-B (UV-B) is a section of the UV spectrum, with wavelengths between 270 and 320 nm. An increased danger for the eye from ultraviolet rays has been linked to the decrease in stratospheric ozone Lornoxicam is a new agent of the oxicam derivatives that has antiinflammatory analgesic and antipyretic activity. It has fewer incidences of adverse effects than other NSAIDs This work was designed to focus on the histological and immunohistochemical changes induced by ultraviolet B radiation on the cornea of adult male albino rats and the possible protective role of Lornoxicam. |
