Corneal thickness and elevation maps computed from optical rotary scans [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Refract. Surg., 20, pp. S576-S580, (2004), 2004
Purpose: Recently the authors presented a technique that allows corneal thickness measurements along any meridian from optical sections obtained using a rotary scanning system. This paper presents 3-D mapping of the corneal thickness and topography of both corneal surfaces, obtained with the rotary system.

Astaxanthin ameliorates benzalkonium chloride–induced dry eye disease through suppressing inflammation and oxidative stress via Keap1‐Nrf2/HO‐1 signaling pathways

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The flowchart of this research. Abstract Background Dry eye disease (DED) predominantly results from elevated tear film osmolarity, which can not only cause ocular inconvenience but may lead to visual impairments, severely compromising patient well‐being and exerting substantial economic burdens as well.

The NLRP3 inflammasome pathway contributes to chronic inflammation in experimental autoimmune uveitis

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The present study investigates the role of the NLRP3 inflammasome in the chronicity of ocular inflammation in uveitis using the experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) model. Whole eyes collected from EAU mice, 12 weeks post induction, were sectioned and subjected to immunohistochemistry. The confocal images from these sections were then assessed for the
