Implantable Intraocular Fluorescence Sensor for Visualized Monitoring of Alzheimer's Disease
A fluorescent intraocular biomarker monitoring system based on an inverse opal hydrogel is developed for Alzheimer's disease monitoring. The developed sensors exploit the properties of inverse opal hydrogels and aptamers to enable long‐term in vivo monitoring. The FAIOL performance is validated using simulated aqueous humor and porcine eyeballs.
