Non-contact acoustic micro-tapping optical coherence elastography for quantification of corneal anisotropic elasticity: in vivo rabbit study [PDF]
Purpose. To demonstrate accurate measurement of corneal elastic moduli in vivo with non-contact and non-invasive optical coherence elastography. Methods. Elastic properties (in-plane Young's modulus E and both in-plane, u, and out-of-plane, G, shear moduli) of rabbit cornea were quantified in vivo using non-contact dynamic Acoustic micro-Tapping ...

Deep Sequential Feature Learning in Clinical Image Classification of Infectious Keratitis [PDF]
Infectious keratitis is the most common entities of corneal diseases, in which pathogen grows in the cornea leading to inflammation and destruction of the corneal tissues. Infectious keratitis is a medical emergency, for which a rapid and accurate diagnosis is needed for speedy initiation of prompt and precise treatment to halt the disease progress and

This study reports the upregulation of ELMO1 and GPR141 in human Fuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) corneal endothelium and ultraviolet A‐induced FECD mice model. A genetic association of an intergenic single nucleotide polymorphism rs918980 present between both genes is observed with FECD in the Indian population.

SmartKC: Smartphone-based Corneal Topographer for Keratoconus Detection [PDF]
Keratoconus is a severe eye disease affecting the cornea (the clear, dome-shaped outer surface of the eye), causing it to become thin and develop a conical bulge. The diagnosis of keratoconus requires sophisticated ophthalmic devices which are non-portable and very expensive.
