Intraocular islet transplantation was investigated as a new procedure to treat diabetes. The
development of this procedure requires close monitoring of the function of both eye and islet …

The cornea serves as a vital protective barrier for the eye; however, it is prone to injury and
damage that can disrupt corneal epithelium and nerves, triggering inflammation. Therefore …

We present a hydrodynamic model for a thin spherical shell of active nematic liquid crystal
with an arbitrary configuration of defects. The active flows generated by defects in the …

Purpose: The subbasal nerve plexus (SNP) is the densest and most recognizable
component of the mammalian corneal innervation; however, the anatomical configuration of …

Maintaining the structure of the cornea is essential for high-quality vision. In adult mammals,
corneal epithelial cells emanate from stem cells in the limbus, driven by an unknown …

Introduction. The paper presents a commentary on the method of analysis of corneal
vibrations occurring during eye pressure measurements with air‐puff tonometers, for …

A new elasto-plastic constitutive model for fiber-reinforced materials is developed. The
model considers the effect of distributed fibers embedded in a matrix. A numerical technique …

Purpose: The aim of this study was to present an experimental optical coherence
tomography (OCT)–guided anterior segment (AS) imaging chick embryo model. Through …

The mammalian cornea constantly regenerates its outer epithelial layer. Cells lost by
abrasion are replaced by division of both corneal epithelial cells and populations of stem …

Spirals are among the most intriguing of geometrical patterns, frequently encountered in the
world around us at all scales, from the cosmic spiral arms of galaxies to the microscopic …
