Species variations in the refractive index of the eye lens and patterns of change with ageing

B Pierscionek - Focus on eye research, 2005 - books.google.com
The eye lens contains no vasculature and has no direct innervation. Its simple arrangement
of long thin fibre-like cells, containing proteins and water, is organised to maintain …

Light scattering in donor lenses

TJTP Van Den Berg, JK Ijspeert - Vision research, 1995 - Elsevier
Light scattering for normal and cataractous lenses from 21–86 yr old donors was measured
in vitro. As expected, scattering increased with severity of cataract. Scattering decreased …

Light scatter in the normal young, elderly, and cataractous eye demonstrates little wavelength dependency

D Whitaker, R Steen, DB Elliott - Optometry and Vision Science, 1993 - journals.lww.com
The purpose of the study was to investigate whether light scatter in normal young, elderly,

Small-angle intraocular light scatter: a hypothesis concerning its source

RP Hemenger - JOSA A, 1988 - opg.optica.org
The crystalline lens makes a major contribution to intraocular light scatter, yet the
responsible structural features have not been identified. A hypothesis is presented that …
