We’re now one step closer to being cyborgs, thanks to a new optical lens that can zoom in and out in response to electric signals generated by human eyes. The lenses, which are made from a soft ...
Researchers have developed an adaptive liquid lens, inspired by the functionality of the human eye. Using an electronically responsive fluid called dibutyl adipate, they created a lightweight, compact ...
The preservation of fossils of some of the oldest known vertebrates is so impressive that palaeontologists can not only count their eyes, but determine how they worked. The findings demonstrate that ...
Researchers are developing lenses that can alter their focal length in response to changes in their environment. Hongrui Jiang and Liang Dong provide an insight into the field. If you wear glasses and ...
During lens cell differentiation there are a number of very characteristic morphological changes that occur. These include a 50- to 100-fold increase in cell length as the equatorial lens epithelial ...
