Newts have the exceptional capability of regenerating the lens through their lifetime. The transparency of the anterior chamber makes OCT an idea imaging technology to track the entire process of the lens regeneration in vivo without interruptions. We demonstrated, for the first time, that OCT can capture not only essential morphological changes similar to the changes observed in histology but some fine structures, like zonular fibers, which are not visible in histology. Our initial results warrant the future research of tailoring OCT for dynamically imaging the lens regeneration in newts.
