Relationship of Peripapillary Retinal Perfusion with Peripapillary Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness in Diabetes Mellitus Patients without Diabetic Retinopathy

open access: yesIJRETINA (International Journal of Retina), 2021
Introduction: Impaired blood flow is an early sign of retinal dysfunction in diabetes. Impaired blood flow of the radial peripapillary capillaries can affect the Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer (RNFL) or ganglion cell function.

A deep learning method for automatic segmentation of the bony orbit in MRI and CT images

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
This paper proposes a fully automatic method to segment the inner boundary of the bony orbit in two different image modalities: magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT).

A multi-parameter grading system for optimal fitting of scleral contact lenses [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2022
Background: While scleral lens practise has improved over the years due to factors such as availability of lenses with better materials and designs as well as experience of practitioners, a lack of objectivity appears to remain in terms of assessment of ...

A Complex Lens for a Complex Eye [PDF]

open access: yesIntegrative and Comparative Biology, 2017
A key innovation for high resolution eyes is a sophisticated lens that precisely focuses light onto photoreceptors. The eyes of holometabolous larvae range from very simple eyes that merely detect light to eyes that are capable of high spatial resolution.

Pax6 interactions with chromatin and identification of its novel direct target genes in lens and forebrain. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Pax6 encodes a specific DNA-binding transcription factor that regulates the development of multiple organs, including the eye, brain and pancreas. Previous studies have shown that Pax6 regulates the entire process of ocular lens development.

Eye lens proteomics

open access: yesAmino Acids, 2006
The eye lens is a fascinating organ as it is in essence living transparent matter. Lenticular transparency is achieved through the peculiarities of lens morphology, a semi-apoptotic process where cells elongate and loose their organelles and the precise molecular arrangement of the bulk of soluble lenticular proteins, the crystallins.

The role of chloride in the lens of the eye [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, 1997
Until recently, the investigation of membrane ion transport mechanisms and their relationship with cataract formation has mainly focused on sodium, potassium and calcium. The specific role of chloride in solute transport within the lens has been given little attention. Rather, chloride was considered as simply the counterion to sodium.

Intraocular light scatter as modeled through a stratified medium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Intraocular light scatter is modeled through a stratified medium. It is shown that the eye lens possesses properties of an interference filter. In conditions that may mimic opacification, as found with cataract formation, such a filter may have stop ...
