Ionic–Bionic Interfaces: Advancing Iontronic Strategies for Bioelectronic Sensing and Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Ionic–bionic interfaces for bioelectronics leverage ions as multifunctional mediators that combine mechanical compliance, ionic and electronic functionalities, and therapeutic effects. These systems offer real‐time biosignal transduction, effective wound dressing, responsive drug delivery, and seamless interaction between soft tissues and electronic ...

Bioinspired Tissue Transparency: Achieving Sclera‐to‐Cornea Transplantation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A bioinspired decellularization‐compression‐locking tactic (DCLT) is developed to transform human sclerae into transparent corneal substitutes. These clear, robust, and pro‐regenerative substitutes are capable of repairing complex corneal injuries, including chemical burns, keratoconus, and penetrating wounds, demonstrating their clinical potential to ...

Myopes have significantly higher serum melatonin concentrations than non-myopes [PDF]

, 2017
Purpose Experimental animal models of myopia demonstrate that higher melatonin (Mel) and lower dopamine (DA) concentrations actively promote axial elongation.

EGR Proteins Mediate Interferon‐Independent Anti‐HSV‐1 Responses Through Viral and Host Targets

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Early antiviral responses are typically mediated by interferons. However, during HSV‐1 infection, host early growth response (Egr) genes, which are not interferon‐stimulated genes, are quickly induced by viral protein ICP0. EGR proteins, in turn, suppress viral lytic infection by activating viral latency‐associated (LAT) and host immune regulatory ...

Analysis of the pathogenic factors and management of dry eye in ocular surface disorders [PDF]

, 2017
The tear film represents the interface between the eye and the environment. The alteration of the delicate balance that regulates the secretion and distribution of the tear film determines the dry eye (DE) syndrome. Despite having a multifactorial origin,

DNA Nanoflower LYTACs Enable Efficient VEGF Degradation and Verteporfin Loading for Combined Therapy of Wet Age‐Related Macular Degeneration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrated approach that combines a DNA nanoflower VEGF degrader with photodynamic therapy is developed for the treatment of wet age‐related macular degeneration, which reduces the risk of VEGF reactivation‐induced CNV recurrence and minimizes the systemic side effects associated with photodynamic therapy.

Analysis of best corrected visual acuity following corneal refractive surgery comparing low and standard predicted postoperative keratometry [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND: It is a commonly held view in the ophthalmologic community that eyes with sufficiently low calculated postoperative corneal keratometry, less than 35 diopters, should not undergo corrective refractive laser surgery (CRLS) due to the increased

Screening subclinical keratoconus with Placido-based corneal indices [PDF]

, 2013
Purpose: To assess in a sample of normal, keratoconic and keratoconus suspect eyes the performance of a set of new topographic indices computed directly from the digitized images of the Placido rings.

Photothermal Transport for Guiding Nanoparticles Through the Vitreous Humor

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanosecond laser irradiation of the clinically approved dye indocyanine green (ICG) enables light‐guided nanoparticle transport within the vitreous humor. The combined use of ICG and pulsed laser illumination induces localized convection and thermophoresis, directing particles toward illuminated regions.

Effect of ageing on keratoconic corneas

Journal of Optometry, 2016
Purpose: To explore the potential effect of ageing on the corneal curvature and corrected visual acuity in patients with long-term keratoconus because of the paucity of these patients older than 50 years. Methods: Records of keratoconic patients, who had
