The Authors were able to observe histologically the lesions induced by Argon-laser on the retina and choroid of two eyeballs that afterwards were enucleated because they developed choroid melanoma. The observations have been respectively made 10, 20 and 40 days after the beginning of the treatment and a progressive structural overturning of the retina and the choroid due to the obstruction of choriocapillary vessels, to the tendency to fusion of the various nuclear layers as well as to the connection of the layer of nerve fibres, has been observed.
