Quantitative and Rapid In Vivo Imaging of Human Lenticular Fluorescence
Lenticular fluorescence can be measured rapidly, accurately, and quantitatively in vivo which provides a spatially resolved, quantitative measure of lens chemistry, including damage from oxidation and glycation. Careful interpretation of fluorescence intensities and intensity ratios can provide chemical insight into lens health. Anterior segment UV fluorescence imaging can thus serve as a useful tool for screening, monitoring, and research of lens damage and cataract formation.
