Abstract (en)

Sections from human eye tissue were analyzed with Structured Illumination Microscopy (SIM) using a
specially designed microscope setup. In this microscope the structured illumination was generated with a
Twyman-Green Interferometer. This SIM technique allowed us to acquire light-optical images of autofluorophore
distributions in the tissue with previously unmatched optical resolution. In this work the unique
setup of the microscope made possible the application of SIM with three different excitation wavelengths
(488, 568 and 647 nm), thus enabling us to gather spectral information about the autofluorescence signal.
