Lens cortex

Welcome to the world of optical wonders! With the help of our article we will tell you about an unusual, but at the same time important organ of the human eye - the lens cortex.

The lens is one of two transparent discs located in the eye and plays the role of the lens system. It can change its shape, making the eye more or less prominent, depending on how close an object is to the eye. The lens is very sensitive to light and is used to regulate the amount of light passing through the eye.

However, some people have problems with the lens cortex, which can lead to various diseases. The lens cortex is a layer of tissue covering the core of the lens, which contains the water necessary for its transparency. This layer of tissue helps protect the nucleus and protects against water loss as the lens dries. In many cases, excess ultraviolet or infrared light can damage the lens cortex and cause it to detach from the lens nucleus. This condition is called lens cortex degeneration or juvenile glaucoma.

If you have concerns about the health of your lens, I recommend contacting an ophthalmologist who will conduct an examination and determine whether there are any possible abnormalities. There are several treatment options for this abnormality, including medication, surgery, and non-invasive lens correction using optical lenses.
