Prolactin Inducible Protein, but Not Prolactin, Is Present in Human Tears, Is Involved in Tear Film Quality, and Influences Evaporative Dry Eye Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
PurposeDecreased production of the aqueous component of the tear film is an important cause of the development of dry eye disease (DED). Tear production is influenced by hormones and hormone-like factors.

Large Number of Eyelashes in the Lacrimal Sac Found by Dacryoendoscopy: A Case Report

open access: yesCase Reports in Ophthalmology, 2023
Foreign objects sometimes enter the lacrimal sac. Here, we report the case of a patient with many comb-shaped eyelashes in the lacrimal sac and discuss the potential of using dacryoendoscopy to detect and remove foreign bodies from the lacrimal apparatus.

Congenital Lacrimal Fistula in a Seven-Year-Old Female: A Rare Cause of Epiphora [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2020
Congenital lacrimal fistulas are rare epithelium-lined tracts that tend to have a direct communication between skin and the lacrimal drainage system. These are benign developmental abnormalities, that may require no treatment.

Early Eocene fossil illuminates the ancestral (diurnal) ecomorphology of owls and documents a mosaic evolution of the strigiform body plan

open access: yesIbis, Volume 165, Issue 1, Page 231-247, January 2023., 2023
We describe a partial skeleton of a fossil owl (Strigiformes) from the early Eocene London Clay of Walton‐on‐the‐Naze (Essex, UK). The holotype of Ypresiglaux michaeldanielsi, gen. et sp. nov. is one of the most complete specimens of a Palaeogene owl and elucidates the poorly known ecomorphology of stem group Strigiformes.

MOF-Based Polymeric Nanocomposite Films as Potential Materials for Drug Delivery Devices in Ocular Therapeutics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Novel MOF-based polymer nanocomposite films were successfully prepared using Zr-based UiO-67 as a metal-organic framework (MOF) and polyurethane (PU) as a polymeric matrix. Synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction (SXRPD) analysis confirms the improved stability of the UiO-67 embedded nanocrystals and scanning electron microscopy images confirm their ...

Computed tomography in treatment decision making in children with lacrimal drainage disorders

open access: yesOftalʹmologiâ, 2014
The impossibility of lacrimal apparatus direct examination impedes the diagnostics of its disorders, particularly in younger children. Modern diagnostic technology, multi-spiral computed tomography (CT), can help to resolve this problem.
