The guinea pig lens exhibits a GRIN profile with surface and nucleus refractive indices that increase slightly during the first days of life. GRIN plays a major role in the lens optical properties and should be incorporated into computational guinea pig eye models to study emmetropisation, myopia development and ageing.
