Notes: Sumario: To assess the acute and chronic ophthalmological effects of triethylamine exposure among foundry workers. Ocular effects on people currently, previously, and never exposed to triethylamine in a foundry cold box were studied at two points in time. The initial phase included an ocular examination with a slit lamp to assess corneal health, a visual acuity test, and a questionnaire to assess vision symptoms. The follow up included measurements of corneal thickness with an ultrasonic pachymeter and the vision symptoms questionnaire before and after the shift and at the beginning and end of the week. Personal air measurements for triethylamine were also obtained during the follow upRelated records: En: Occupational and environmental medicine. - London and Margate. - Vol. 52, nº 5, May 1995 ; p. 337-343Materia / lugar / evento: Medicina laboral Oftalmología Lesiones oculares Fundición Tri-etilamina Otros autores: Reilly, Mary Jo
