Generation by Visible Light of Labile Free Radicals in the Melanin Granules of the Eye

The melanin granules of the eye generate a free radical when irradiated with visible light under approximately physiological conditions. The rapid generation in light and decay in dark of the free radical as indicated by electron spin resonance studies, coupled with the anatomical proximity of the m...
