Summary

Description
English: In vivo AO 2PFM visualizes features of epithelium and fiber cell organization in mouse lenses. (A-I) Representative images of cellular features at various depths visualized by AO 2PFM in the anterior lenses of the mice employed in the study. (A) Lens epithelium, (B) disorganized and broadened fiber cell ends, (C) non-uniform superficial fiber cells with excessive interdigitation, (D, F) anterior voids, (E, G) mostly uniform rows of fiber cells with enlarged vacuoles, (H, I) tight suture structures at depth. Depth noted in each panel is relative to the epithelium. Arrowheads point to features described in the main text. Scale bar: 50 μm.
