Abstract
The c-fos and c-jun mRNAs were transiently expressed in corneal and lens epithelial cells after blunt trauma. Ocular blunt trauma activates corneal and lens epithelial cells without apparent corneal ablation or direct injury in the lens epithelium. Such activation in lens epithelium might be involved in cataractogenesis.
