Lysergic Acid Diethylamide: Effects on the Developing Mouse Lens

Science May 2, 1969 J. K. Hanaway 28 citations

A single high dose of LSD-25 given to pregnant mice on specific days of gestation caused frequent lens abnormalities in the offspring, including anterior subcapsular defects, overgrowth of lens epithelium, and a widened lens bow resembling radiation-induced cataracts. The effect was confirmed in a duplicate experiment one year later.
