Early oxidation‐related changes in aqueous humor following eye exposure to ultraviolet‐A radiation
UVA exposure induces early oxidative alterations in the aqueous humor, disrupting its antioxidant balance. Levels of ascorbic acid, reduced glutathione (GSH), and the GSH/GSSG ratio decrease, while oxidized glutathione (GSSG), S‐glutathionylated proteins (PSSG), and malondialdehyde (MDA), a lipid peroxidation by‐product, increase.

Update on the genetics of corneal endothelial dystrophies
Corneal endothelial dystrophies are a heterogeneous group of diseases with different modes of inheritance and genetic basis for each dystrophy. The genes associated with these diseases encode transcription factors, structural components of the stroma and

3D‐Printed Corneal Substitutes: Materials, Fabrication, and Preclinical Progress
Successful clinical translation of 3D‐printed corneal substitutes relies on the interplay between the bioink properties, cellular component, and the fabrication process. These factors influence the critical properties of the construct, including optical transparency, mechanical stability, suture retention, that ultimately govern long‐term stromal ...

Bilateral corneal edema in an alcoholic male
Pseudophakic bullous keratopathy and Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy are the two most common causes of corneal edema after cataract surgery. We report a 61-year-old alcoholic male with bilateral corneal edema that improved after his alcohol abstinence.

ABSTRACT Hyaluronan (HA) is an ubiquitous non‐sulfated glycosaminoglycan with unique physicochemical and biological properties that underpin its essential roles in tissue homeostasis, repair, and diseases. First identified in the vitreous humor of the eye, HA has a long‐standing history in ophthalmology as a key component of ophthalmic visco‐surgical ...

Patterns and frequency of keratoplasty in corneal dystrophy at a tertiary eye hospital in Nepal
Background Corneal dystrophy is a group of hereditary disorders with different presentations and management between regions and ethnic groups. This study aimed to report the patterns of corneal dystrophy, the frequency of keratoplasty requirement, and ...

Whole exome sequencing in a consanguineous Iranian family with autosomal recessive non‐syndromic hearing loss revealed a novel homozygous frameshift mutation, c.3713dupA (p.Asp1238Glufs*10), in the LOXHD1 gene. This mutation, located in exon 24, results in a premature stop codon and a truncated protein. Sanger sequencing confirmed co‐segregation of the

Advancing Treatment of Degenerative Eye Diseases at the Nanoscale
Nanotherapeutics possess the potential to overcome longstanding bottlenecks in treating degenerative ophthalmic diseases. With a highly tunable surface chemistry, nanotechnology platforms can be customized to navigate specific anatomical barriers in the eye and target pathways of diseases.
