Development of the human eye

TL;DR: The basic morphogenetic processes of eye development are completed at the end of the second month of embryonic life, however, for correct functioning further maturation processes are required which are not completed before birth or several months after.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biomechanics of the human lens and accommodative system: Functional relevance to physiological states.

TL;DR: This review assesses the advantages and limitations of different measurement techniques and consequent variations in elastic moduli that have been found and the changes in mechanical properties of the lens associated with ageing and pathology and future implications for implant design are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fluorescein leakage of the optic disc in glaucomatous optic neuropathy

TL;DR: Fluorescein angiography revealed significantly increased vascular leakage of glaucomatous optic nerve heads and might be the result of mechanical stress at the level of the lamina cribrosa and/or a sign of ischemic damage.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Functional Type I Interferon Pathway Drives Resistance to Cornea Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 Infection by Recruitment of Leukocytes.

TL;DR: Mice deficient in the A1 chain of the type I IFN receptor (CD118−/−) are extremely sensitive to ocular infection with low doses of HSV-1 as seen by significantly elevated viral titers in the cornea compared to wild type controls.
Journal ArticleDOI

Asymptomatic peripapillary subretinal hemorrhage: a study of 10 cases.

TL;DR: A benign syndrome of isolated PSH in crowded and tilted optic discs in myopic eyes of white women does not cause visual symptoms and resolve spontaneously and it is proposed that an interplay of ocular motor forces, scleral thinning, and vitreopapillary traction acting on a morphologically vulnerable optic disc explains these hemorrhages.
