The design and synthesis of biocompatible nanostructures for biomedical applications are considered vital challenges. Herein, a nanobiocomposite based on acacia hydrogel, natural silk fibroin protein, and synthetic protein fibers of polyvinyl alcohol was fabricated and magnetized with iron oxide nanoparticles (FeO MNPs). The structural properties of the hybrid nanobiocomposite were investigated by essential analyses such as Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer (FTIR), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and X-ray powder diffraction)XRD(analyses, Thermogravimetric and Differential thermogravimetric analysis (TGA-DTG), Vibrating-sample magnetometry (VSM), and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Analysis (EDX).

These two characteristics are interdependent and correlated. Contrary to most currently available computational models of the human eye that only focus on biomechanical or optical aspects, the current study explores the inter-relationships between biomechanics, structure, and optical properties.
