Cornea tissue engineering is strictly dependent on the development of biomaterials that fulfill the strict biocompatibility, biomechanical, and optical requirements of this organ. In this work, we generated novel biomaterials from the squid gladius (SG), and their application in cornea tissue engineering was evaluated. Results revealed that the native SG (N-SG) was biocompatible in laboratory animals, although a local inflammatory reaction was driven by the material.

In this work, we present two new multifocal intraocular lens (MIOL) designs, both based on the silver mean kinoform diffractive lens. We demonstrate that a single aperiodic diffractive profile can be used to create two different MIOLs: one with a kinoform structure and the other with a stepwise profile. Quantitative assessment of the designs was carried out using the through focus modulation transfer function and the area under the modulation transfer function for the prediction of their visual performance.

imaging of the neurovascular network is considered to be one of the most powerful approaches for understanding brain functionality. Nevertheless, simultaneously imaging the biological neural network and blood vessels in deep brain layers in a non-invasive manner remains to a major challenge due to the lack of appropriate labeling fluorescence probe pairs. Herein, we proposed a 2-photon and 3-photon fluorescence probe pair for neurovascular imaging.

Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells are essential for normal retinal function. Morphological defects in these cells are associated with a number of retinal neurodegenerative diseases. Owing to the cellular resolution and depth-sectioning capabilities, individual RPE cells can be visualized in vivo with adaptive optics-optical coherence tomography (AO-OCT).

Cortical computations arise from patterns of neuronal activity that span across all cortical layers and cell types. Three-photon excitation has extended the depth limit of imaging within the mouse brain to encompass all cortical layers. However, simultaneous three-photon imaging throughout cortical layers has yet to be demonstrated.
