Characterization of retinal function and structure in the MPTP murine model of Parkinson’s disease

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
In addition to well characterized motor symptoms, visual disturbances are increasingly recognized as an early manifestation in Parkinson’s disease (PD). A better understanding of the mechanisms underlying these changes would facilitate the development of

In vitro assessment of the biocompatibility of chemically treated silicone materials with human lens epithelial cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Cytotoxicity testing is a regulatory requirement for safety testing of new ocular implants. In vitro toxicity tests determine whether toxic chemicals are present on a material surface or leach out of the material matrix.

Unchanging visions: the effects and limitations of ocular stillness [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2017
Scientists have pondered the perceptual effects of ocular motion, and those of its counterpart, ocular stillness, for over 200 years. The unremitting ‘trembling of the eye’ that occurs even during gaze fixation was first noted by Jurin in 1738. In 1794, Erasmus Darwin documented that gaze fixation produces perceptual fading, a phenomenon rediscovered ...
