چکیده

The clinical features of pigmented lens striae were studied biomicroscopically in seven patients. The lenses of three of these, obtained by cataract surgery, were examined by electron microscopy to determine the structure of the striae. We concluded that the striae are not formed by remnants of tunica vasculosa lentis, as earlier workers believed, but consist of fine fibrils of zonular bundles entrapping pigment granules of uveal origin.

Safety of a picosecond laser with diffractive lens array (DLA) in the treatment of Fitzpatrick skin types IV to VI: A retrospective review.

BACKGROUND Laser therapy in patients with skin of color is associated with an increased rate of complications. The 755-nm picosecond laser with the diffractive lens array (DLA) has been used for the treatment of scars, striae, and rejuvenation. By delivering high energy to focused areas, the DLA minimizes complications. OBJECTIVE This study explores the adverse events associated with treatmen...

TIE-25: Striae in optical glass

Optical glasses from SCHOTT are well-known for their very low striae content. Even in raw production formats, such as blocks or strips, requirements for the most demanding optical systems are met. Striae intensity is thickness dependent. Hence, in finished lenses or prisms with short optical path lengths, the striae effects will decrease to levels where they can be neglected completely, i.e. th...

Entoptic phenomena and reproducibility of corneal striae following contact lens wear.

Vertical corneal striae distributed across the posterior cornea are one of the objective signs of clinically unacceptable corneal swelling (greater than 6%) resulting from contact lens wear. This study reports that corneal striae are repeatable both in configuration and location with different levels of hypoxia. In most instances entoptic phenomena result from the presence of these lines. The r...

Histoanatomical study of the lens and ciliary body in ostrich eye

In the present study, the lenses and ciliary bodies of 20 ostrich eyes were studied macroscopically and microscopically. The histological slides were studied after staining by hematoxylin and eosin, Verhoeff, Van Gieson, and periodic acid-Schiff (PAS). Posterior surface of lens was more convex than its anterior surface. The average lens diameter and thickness were respectively measured as 1.43 ...
