Presbyopia Correction in Lens Replacement Surgery: A Review
ABSTRACT Presbyopia affects approximately 1.8 billion individuals globally, posing significant challenges as life expectancy and near‐vision demands, particularly with mobile phone use, grow. Addressing presbyopia during lens replacement surgery has become a key focus for cataract surgeons, aiming to reduce dependence on corrective eyewear. This review

The impact of culture media on the endothelial viability of corneas [PDF]
Background: The complexity of cryopreservation and its potential to damage the endothelium make it so that it is rarely used in routine eye banking, except for occasional, clinically urgent transplants, where the main objective is to save the eye.

Increased levels of type VIII collagen in human brain tumours compared to normal brain tissue and non-neoplastic cerebral disorders. [PDF]
The expression of type VIII collagen was examined in the normal and diseased human brain. Focal immunoreactivity was seen in histologically abnormal vessels of all four angiomas and 40 of 52 brain tumours (gliomas, meningiomas and schwannomas).

Cataract Surgery in the Small Adult Eye: A Review
ABSTRACT Modern cataract surgery continues to advance, yet intraocular lens (IOL) based surgery in the small adult eye remains challenging. Thorough preoperative assessment and surgical preparation optimise postoperative outcomes in these cases. Advances in IOL power calculation, including artificial intelligence‐driven formulas, improve accuracy ...

The impact of biomechanics on corneal endothelium tissue engineering [PDF]
The integrity of innermost layer of the cornea, the corneal endothelium, is key to sustaining corneal transparency. Therefore, disease or injury causing loss or damage to the corneal endothelial cell population may threaten vision.

Canine corneal endothelial cell analysis using vital dyes and light microscopy
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the use of vital dyes and light microscopy for assessing canine corneal endothelial morphology ex vivo. Methods The corneas of 40 canine eyes (n = 20 dogs) enucleated <24 h following euthanasia or death were isolated and flat‐mounted on a slide. Corneal endothelium was stained via 0.25% trypan blue followed by 0.5% alizarin
