From: Age-related compaction of lens fibers affects the structure and optical properties of rabbit lenses
Representative light micrographs from thick (1–2 μm) sections of cross-sectioned cortical fiber cells. A. Adult lens at 7 mm equatorial diameter. B. Adult lens at 6 mm equatorial diameter. C. Aged lens at 7 mm equatorial diameter. D. Aged lens at 6 mm equatorial diameter. Cross sectioned fibers from aged rabbit lenses were noticeably and significantly smaller than those from adult rabbit lenses.
