Providing is cellular aggregates derived from corneal endothelial cells that, when transplanted, readily adhere to the parenchyma of cornea and function in a manner equivalent to corneal endothelial cells, and a method of transplantation of the cellular aggregates. Cellular aggregates derived from corneal endothelial cells. The cellular aggregates derived from corneal endothelial cells is prepared by culturing human corneal endothelial cells in a medium containing fetal bovine serum, growth factor and glucose; and then float culturing the cells obtained in a medium containing growth factor. A method of transplantation into the anterior chamber the cellular aggregate or the cellular aggregate prepared by the above method, comprising inserting a tube into the parenchyma of cornea, introducing the cellular aggregate into the anterior chamber through the inserted tube, and causing the cellular aggregate that has been introduced to adhere to Descemet's membrane by assuming in a downward-facing position.

The present invention relates to a compact refrigerator for exclusively storing cosmetic preparations and certain kinds of medicines. Particularly, it relates to a compact refrigerator for storing in the compartment thereof cosmetic preparations not containing any chemical preservative or disinfectant that may have a bad effect on a human body, or cosmetic preparations containing any such preservative or disinfectant only in a small amount, so that any effect produced by the preservative or disinfectant on a human body may be minimized. The refrigerator maintains the temperature in the compartment thereof within a temperature range of about 5.degree. through 10.degree. and keeps them cool. The present invention maintains the temperature in the compartment of the refrigerator within a predetermined range of temperature by means of a thermoelectric module such as a Peltier element and/or a heat dissipating fan.

The present invention relates to a device for observing the meibomian glands enables a ready observation necessary for examination without a direct contact of an examination probe to the eyelid and an observation of all of the upper and lower meibomian glands in a relatively short time. A device for observing the meibomian glands, comprising: a light source radiating light containing infrared rays, a visible light-cutting filter that is opaque to visible light but passes at least a portion of infrared rays, an optical system for transmitting light from the light source that has passed through the visible light-cutting filter to the site being observed, an optical system for transmitting light from the site being observed to an infrared camera, an infrared camera, and a display for converting an image picked up by the infrared camera to a visible image and displaying the visible image; wherein the site being observed is a portion comprising the meibomian glands of an eyelid turned inside out, light from the light source is irradiated onto the site being observed, and light reflecting off the site being observed is picked up by the infrared camera.
