Abstract
Eye lens capsules contained a previously overlooked structure possibly derived from the Zonule of Zinn or lens epithelium. Sheep lens capsule inner surface revealed periodic stripes spaced at about 8µm over an area of more than 200µm long and wide. Ultra thin sections of a similar area revealed the periodic insertion of cell feet into the lens capsule with numerous vesicles. Cryosections of entire mouse eyes confirmed a similar looking structure. The structure appears in an area of basement membrane growth. A stylized foot-feet model is offered to help visualize the structure in 3D.
