TLDR
A simple quantitative and reproducible method for evaluating lens transmission based on the measurement of autofluorescence in the anterior and the posterior part of the lens by means of a fluorophotometer, assuming an about equal fluorescence quantum efficiency in both parts.Abstract:
A simple quantitative and reproducible method for evaluating lens transmission (λ = 490 and 530 nm) is described. It is based on the measurement of autofluorescence in the anterior and the posterior pread more

Fundus autofluorescence and age-related macular degeneration.
TL;DR: Patients with retinal vascular anastomosis to the vascular proliferation of exudative AMD were much more likely to have focal areas of intense autofluorescence in their fellow eye that corresponded, for the most part, with focal Areas of hyperpigmentation best seen by infrared monochromatic fundus photography.

Safety of posterior chamber phakic intraocular lenses for the correction of high myopia: anterior segment changes after posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens implantation.

TL;DR: Posterior chamber phakic IOL implantation for the surgical correction of high myopia is a safe procedure with regard to immediate visual and refractive results, but the increase in flare, the endothelial cell loss, the decrease in crystalline lens transmittance, and the iris-PCPIOL and crystalline Lens contact are findings that suggest caution regarding the long-term safety of this lens implant.

Apparatus and methods for measuring characteristics of biological tissues and similar materials
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for characterizing biological tissues and other turbid media with normalization that serves to compensate for the effects of scattering, reflectance, and absorption is described.

TL;DR: Implantation of the currently used V4 Staar Surgical model ICL resulted in significantly less anterior subcapsular opacities, clinically significant cataracts, and secondary ICL-related surgery.

Quantitative Analysis of Lens Changes After Vitrectomy by Fluorophotometry
TL;DR: Lens autofluorescence in the eyes that underwent vitrectomy was significantly higher than in the contralateral eyes that were not operated on and oxidation of lens proteins intraoperatively may be one of the causes of development of nuclear cataract after vit rectomy.
