Abstract

Ocular Photothermal Therapy In article number 2201098, Hui-jiuan Chen, Weirong Chen, and co-workers develop a functionalized intraocular lens with region-confined photothermal effect, whose outer rim is decorated with a layer of nanoporous gold ring using micromanufacturing technology. Such a photothermal intraocular lens can precisely induce the apoptosis of residual lens epithelial cells under mild NIR irradiation, thus preventing the posterior capsular opacification after cataract surgery.
