This peer-reviewed article evaluated acute corneal damage induced by 222 and 254 nm UV light in albino rats. In the study, no corneal damage was induced by 222 nm UV light, which suggests that 222 nm UV light may not harm rat eyes within the energy range and may be useful for sterilising or preventing infection in the future.
