The Ageing Lens

1 Jan 2000

Abstract excerpt

The human lens grows by a process of epithelial cell division at its equator and the formation of generations of differentiated fibre cells. Despite the process of continuous remodelling necessary to achieve growth within a closed system, the lens can retain a high level of light transmission throughout the lifetime of the individual, with the ability to form sharp images on the retina. Continuous growth of the...
