The aging human lens: structure, growth, and physiological behaviour

Since the lens has no direct blood supply, it survives well both in the globe itself and in organ culture media. 8-10 Whole cataractous lenses were also once routinely available before the advent of extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE) with intraocular lens implantation and in the past there hav...

description Since the lens has no direct blood supply, it survives well both in the globe itself and in organ culture media. 8-10 Whole cataractous lenses were also once routinely available before the advent of extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE) with intraocular lens implantation and in the past there have been combined slit lamp and in vitro studies which have correlated changes in light scatter and absorbance with specific alterations in ion and protein levels (Fig 1 and Marcantonio et al 11 and Hockwin et al 12 ).
