Vision regeneration

For vision to continue, c/s-retinal must be regenerated. The /rans-retinal is reduced to /rans-retinol (i.e. the aldehyde is converted to alcohol) and is isomerised to c/s-retinal this is oxidised to c/s-retinol (see Figure 15.9(b)). Two different cells are involved the oxidation of retinal to retinol occurs in the photoreceptor cell. The retinol is then released and is taken up by the adjacent epithelial cell where it is isomerised to c/s-retinol and then reduced to... 

In one reported case, thioglycolic acid accidentally splashed onto the eyes, face, legs, and arms caused second-degree burns of the skin. Within 2 hours the corneas became clouded and the conjunctivae was edematous. Over the course of several months the cornea cleared and necrotic conjunctiva regenerated and vascularized, leaving slightly impaired vision. 

This chapter deals with botulinum toxin type A (BOTOX) in the treatment of strabismus, blepharospasm, and related disorders. Botulinum toxin type A (BOTOX) has been used to treat strabismus, blepharospasm, Meige s syndrome, and spasmodic torticollis. By preventing acetylcholine release at me neuromuscular junction, botulinum toxin A usually causes a temporary paralysis of the locally injected muscles. The variability in duration of paralysis may be related to me rate of developing antibodies to me toxin, upregulation of nicotinic cholinergic postsynaptic receptors, and aberrant regeneration of motor nerve fibers at me neuromuscular junction. Complications related to this toxin include double vision (diplopia) and lid droop (ptosis). 

The all-fran retinal does not fit into the 11-cm retinal binding site on opsin therefore, npon isomerization the trans isomer separates from the protein. At this point an electrical impulse is generated and transmitted to the brain. In the absence of light, enzymes mediate the isomerization of all-fran retinal back to 11-cm retinal, and rhodopsin is regenerated by the binding of the cis isomer to opsin, as described above. With the completion of this step, the vision cycle can begin again.
