Chitin organization during corneal lens morphogenesis. Top row: apical surfaces of wild-type (white1118) mid-pupal retinas stained for chitin with chitin-binding domain probe CBD (green) and E-Cadherin and N-Cadherin (magenta). From left to right, the times are 48 h after puparium formation (APF), 50 h APF, 51 h APF, 52 h APF, and 54 h APF. Middle row shows enlargements of single ommatidia. Bottom: Diagram of chitin (green) organization during corneal lens development. CC, cone cells; 1º, primary pigment cells; 2º, secondary pigment cells; 3º, tertiary pigment cells; B, mechanosensory bristles.
How does the #corneal #lens in the #fly eye get its light-focusing shape? @nehaghosh.bsky.social &co show that central cells produce large amounts of #chitin to form the thick central corneal lens; peripheral cells produce smaller amounts to form tapered lens edges @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4lLNgeY

Two slitlamp photographs of an eye, side by side. The left, labeled 'A Pretreatment slitlamp photograph,' shows a cornea with a large red lesion. The right, 'B Posttreatment slitlamp photograph,' shows the same eye after treatment, with a fainter lesion.
This case report describes a case of Peters anomaly with central #corneal #neovascularization diagnosed in a female toddler who presented with acute intracorneal #hemorrhage in the right eye. ja.ma/4rI7QPv
What a great way to start the year 🎉

Two slitlamp photos: A) "Pretreatment" shows a cloudy cornea with a central red area. B) "Posttreatment" shows improved clarity with reduced redness. Both display close-up eye views.

Blurry or distorted vision that keeps changing? It could be #keratoconus.
This progressive #corneal condition often starts young and can interfere with everyday life.

If there is misalignment between the optical elements and the fovea there could be big implications for refractive outcome. @eyemd

Zernike polynomials are used to describe wavefront aberrations of the cornea or lens from an ideal spherical shape, which result in refraction errors.
