Scleral topography and its usefulness in scleral lens fitting
Background: Scleral lenses are one of the best options to manage corneal irregularities and severe ocular surface diseases. As scleral lenses rest on the sclera, scleral topographical data are necessary when fitting these lenses.

New two-point scleral-fixation technique for foldable intraocular lenses with four hollow haptics [PDF]
The study was to report a new two-point scleral-fixation technique for foldable intraocular lenses with four haptics. Lenses were slid into the anterior chamber from a 2.8 mm corneal incision and fixed under two sclera flaps at two opposite points.

Contact lenses are classified on the basis of the bearing zone area as Corneal, Corneo-scleral and Scleral lenses. Scleral lenses are large in diameter (18 - 23mm) and have a bearing completely on sclera.

The variability of corneal and anterior segment parameters in keratoconus [PDF]
Purpose: To analyse, describe and test diverse corneal and anterior segment parameters in normal and keratoconic eyes to better understand the geometry of the keratoconic cornea. Method: 44 eyes from 44 keratoconic patients and 44 eyes from 44 healthy

Microstructure and growth of the lenses of schizochroal trilobite eyes [PDF]
Lenses within the schizochroal eyes of phacopine trilobites are made principally of calcite and characterisation of them using light microscopy and high-resolution electron imaging and diffraction has revealed an array of microstructural arrangements ...

Evolution of the eyes of vipers with and without infrared-sensing pit organs [PDF]
We examined lens and brille transmittance, photoreceptors, visual pigments, and visual opsin gene sequences of viperid snakes with and without infrared-sensing pit organs. Ocular media transmittance is high in both groups.
