When fully implemented, the key functional capabilities of this core will be:
(1) Imaging; in vivo imaging of ocular tissues including anterior and posterior chamber, and the posterior pole (retina) using conventional photography and spectral domain OCT;
(2) Computational Support for light and confocal data analysis, including 3D rendering, volume deconvolution of light and confocal data; and
(3) Structural Analysis by electron microscopy (transmission and scanning), including tissue preparation, sectioning, and microscopy.
