It is a highly organized transparent spheroid
structure that has evolved to perform refraction of the light entering in the eye. It
does not posses nerve, blood vessels or connective
tissue.
![Page 4: LENS - prime.edu.pk · Lens is suspended in eye by Zonules which are inserted on ... absence of pigments ... Congenital Infantile](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051509/5ae92ee67f8b9acc269121c4/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Biconvex LensDiameter varies from 8.8 to 9.2 (9mm) Lens grow in size continuously throughout
life. Its weight is about 60 mgm at the birth and up-to 250 mgm by 80 years of age.
Antero-posterior thickness changes with accommodation. Thickness is 4.75 – 5 mm (4.5mm) (un-accommodated) in adults.
Circumference is known as equator
![Page 5: LENS - prime.edu.pk · Lens is suspended in eye by Zonules which are inserted on ... absence of pigments ... Congenital Infantile](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051509/5ae92ee67f8b9acc269121c4/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Lens is suspended in eye by Zonules which are inserted on anterior surface of equatorial lens capsule and attached to ciliary body(Pars Plicata-Ciliary Processes) . Zonular fibres are series of fibrillin rich fibre.
![Page 6: LENS - prime.edu.pk · Lens is suspended in eye by Zonules which are inserted on ... absence of pigments ... Congenital Infantile](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051509/5ae92ee67f8b9acc269121c4/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Histologically lens consists of three major components:
1. Capsule – is a thick collagenesebasement membrane which is transparent, elastic acellular envelop, thick at anterior pre-equatorial region (21 micron ), thinnest at the posterior pole (4 micron ). Anterior pole is approximately 14 micron thick.
![Page 7: LENS - prime.edu.pk · Lens is suspended in eye by Zonules which are inserted on ... absence of pigments ... Congenital Infantile](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051509/5ae92ee67f8b9acc269121c4/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
2. Lens Epithelium – It is a single layer of cells lining the anterior capsule and extends to the equatorial lens bow.
Zone of epithelial cells:a. Central – cells do not actively divide,
they divide under pathological conditions only.
b. Pre-equatorial germinal zone : cells rarely divide.
![Page 8: LENS - prime.edu.pk · Lens is suspended in eye by Zonules which are inserted on ... absence of pigments ... Congenital Infantile](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051509/5ae92ee67f8b9acc269121c4/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
C. Germinal zone: constitute of the stem cell population. The newly formed cells from germinal zone are forced into transitional zone where they elongate and differentiate to form mass of the lens. The lens capsule regulate the transport of metabolite, nutrients and electrolytes to the lens fibers.
![Page 9: LENS - prime.edu.pk · Lens is suspended in eye by Zonules which are inserted on ... absence of pigments ... Congenital Infantile](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051509/5ae92ee67f8b9acc269121c4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
3. Lens substance: It constitute the main mass of the lens. It is divided into-
a. Nucleus
b. Cortex
Nucleus: consists of
(i) Embryonic nucleus (it contains primary lens fibres that are formed in lens vesicle)
![Page 10: LENS - prime.edu.pk · Lens is suspended in eye by Zonules which are inserted on ... absence of pigments ... Congenital Infantile](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051509/5ae92ee67f8b9acc269121c4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
(ii) Fetal nucleus: it contains embryonic nucleus and all fibres added to the lens before birth
(iii) Infantile nucleus: it contains embryonic , fetal nucleus together with all the fibres added up-to the age of 4 years.
(iv) Adult nucleus: composed of all fibres added before sexual maturation The nucleus consists of densely compacted lens fibres and higher refractive index than cortex.

It is located peripherally and is composed of secondary fibres
formed continuously after sexual maturation. It is further divided
into: Deep cortex
Intermediate cortex
Superficial cortex

Lens fibres contain high concentrations of crystalline.
Crystalline represent the major protein of the lens (constitute 90% of total protein content of lens). Crystalline has the following constituents:
Alpha
Beta and,
Gamma
![Page 14: LENS - prime.edu.pk · Lens is suspended in eye by Zonules which are inserted on ... absence of pigments ... Congenital Infantile](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051509/5ae92ee67f8b9acc269121c4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The lens serves two major functions:
Focusing of visible light rays on the foveaAccomodationPreventing damage from ultra-violet radiation by reaching the retina
![Page 15: LENS - prime.edu.pk · Lens is suspended in eye by Zonules which are inserted on ... absence of pigments ... Congenital Infantile](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051509/5ae92ee67f8b9acc269121c4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Lens function and transparency is dependant on the supply of appropriate nutrient to its various structures. Metabolic needs of a adult lens is met by the aqueous and vitreous.
There is continuous transport of ions into and out of the lens.
![Page 16: LENS - prime.edu.pk · Lens is suspended in eye by Zonules which are inserted on ... absence of pigments ... Congenital Infantile](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051509/5ae92ee67f8b9acc269121c4/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The transparency is dependent on highly organized structure of lens, dense packing of crystalline. Avascularity, absence of pigments and optimal hydration.
By act of accommodation it changes focusing power. Accommodation occurs by increasing the curvature of anterior surface thereby changing refractive power of lens.
Light transmission and elasticity of lens decreases with age.
![Page 17: LENS - prime.edu.pk · Lens is suspended in eye by Zonules which are inserted on ... absence of pigments ... Congenital Infantile](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051509/5ae92ee67f8b9acc269121c4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Any opacity in the lens or its capsule, whether developmental or acquired is called cataract.
Developmental opacities are usually partial and stationary, whereas acquired opacities are progressive. They progress until the entire lens is involved, but exceptions are well known in both types.

Caused by degeneration and opacification of existing lens fibres, formation of aberrant fibres or deposition of other material in their place.
Factors causing disturbance of critical intra –and extra-cellular equilibrium of water and electrolyte or deranges the colloid system within the fibres tends to bring about opacification.

* Uniocular cataract – if vision is affected then early surgery, preferably within first six weeks of birth with immediate fitting of contact lens.
* Fixation develops between 2-4 months of age, therefore any cataract interfering with vision should be dealt before this age, and the earliest possible time is preferred
* Medical/ Paediatric fitness for anaesthesia should be obtained.
