Lens aging: Effects of crystallins [PDF]

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2009
The primary function of the eye lens is to focus light on the retina. The major proteins in the lens--alpha, beta, and gamma-crystallins--are constantly subjected to age-related changes such as oxidation, deamidation, truncation, glycation, and methylation. Such age-related modifications are cumulative and affect crystallin structure and function. With

MRI study of the changes in crystalline lens shape with accommodation and ageing in humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Magnetic Resonance Imaging was used to study changes in the crystalline lens and ciliary body with accommodation and aging. Monocular images were obtained in 15 young (19-29 years) and 15 older (60-70 years) emmetropes when viewing at far (6m) and at ...

Haze Estimation of Crystalline Lens by Contrast Sensitivity as a Function of Scattering Light Intensity

open access: yesi-Perception, 2011
Cataract is one of the most typical age-related eye diseases. As the cataract progresses, the crystalline lens becomes hazier and the visual ability deteriorates.

Bilateral posterior crystalline lens dislocations in an otherwise healthy child [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Introduction: Ectopia lentis is defined as a crystalline lens displacement, either partially or completely, due to zonular abnormalities. It can be a result of trauma, hereditary ocular disease, or part of systemic diseases, like Marfan syndrome and ...

Research progress of lens zonules

open access: yesAdvances in Ophthalmology Practice and Research, 2023
Background: The lens zonule, a circumferential system of fibres connecting the ciliary body to the lens, is responsible for centration of the lens.
