Abstract in Portuguese
Neste trabalho foi investigado através da Microscopia de Força Atômica (MFA) a topografia de tecidos oculares, dentre eles, cristalinos e córneas e doenças associadas. O principal objetivo foi o desenvolvimento de metodologia apropriada para a caracterização do cristalino para distintos estágios de maturação da catarata. A metodologia foi estendida para a avaliação do sequestro de córnea e foram obtidas imagens para grupos de tecidos sadios e com doença. Foi obtida uma comparação entre as imagens obtidas com MFA e análise histológica. Por fim, confirmou-se a aplicabilidade do MFA para caracterização estrutural de tecidos oculares mencionados.

Abstract in English
In this work it was investigated through Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) the topography of ocular tissues, crystalline lenses and corneal and associated pathologies. The main objective is the improvement of an appropriated methodology to crystalline lenses characterization and the distinct stages of cataract. The methodology was extended to corneal sequestrum assessments and it was obtained images to groups of healthy and diseased tissues. A comparison between the AFM and histological analysis was obtained. The AFM applicability was confirmed to structural characterization of ocular tissues.
