Background: In age related macular degeneration and inherited dystrophies, preservation of retinal ganglion cells has been demonstrated. This finding has led to the development of various models of subretinal or epiretinal implant in order to restore visio ...
The application of lasers in microsurgery and in particular in neurosurgery offers many advantages such as, e.g., hemostasis, no-touch (i.e. aseptic) procedures, and pinpoint accuracy. However, these advantages can often not be fully exploited since adequa ...
We present a high speed full range spectral domain optical coherence tomography system. By inserting a phase modulator into the reference arm and recording of every other spectrum with a 90° phase shift (introduced by the phase modulator) we are able to di ...
PURPOSE: We propose a feasibility study of new corneal topography technology with the aim of monitoring intraoperative corneal topography during excimer laser photorefractive keratectomy. The PAR system measures corneal topography with single grid projecti ...
PURPOSE. To present a novel and minimally invasive approach to intraocular pressure (IOP) monitoring based on a sensing contact lens. METHODS. The key element of this measurement method is a soft contact lens with an embedded microfabricated strain gauge a ...
We show that digital holography can be combined easily with optical coherence tomography approach. Varying the reference path length is the means used to acquire a series of holograms at different depths, providing after reconstruction images of slices at ...
Cataract is the leading cause of blindness worldwide. The clouding of the human eye lens is called "Grauer Star" in German. In the industrialized countries this process of increased blindness is corrected by the surgical removal of the clouded lens and its ...
Ocular tissues are highly dependent on lipid turnover and metabolism, which requires an uptake mechanism for fatty acids from lipoproteins. We studied the activity and expression of lipoprotein lipase (LPL), which catalyzes the hydrolysis of plasma triglyc ...
