Strategies to design antimicrobial contact lenses and contact lens cases.

open access: yesJournal of materials chemistry. B, 2018
Contact lens wear is a primary risk factor for developing ocular complications, such as contact lens acute red eye (CLARE), contact lens-induced peripheral ulcer (CLPU) and microbial keratitis (MK).

Rethinking contact lens aftercare [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Optometry, 2017
The evolution of contact lens technology and clinical practice over the past three decades has been remarkable, with dramatic improvements in material biocompatibility, better lens designs and care systems, and more flexible and convenient modalities of wear. However, our approach to the aftercare examination has remained conservative, with the general

Eco‐Fabricated Nanowave‐Textured Implants Drive Microtubule‐Assisted Nuclear Mechanotransduction and Chromatin Modification: Biophysical Priming for Osteogenesis and Bone Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Eco‐friendly nanowave‐textured implants produced via femtosecond laser fabrication enhance bone regeneration by orchestrating a precise mechanotransduction cascade. This nanotopography directs mesenchymal stem cell alignment and cytoskeletal organization, triggering changes in nuclear shape and chromatin acetylation that prime cells for osteogenesis ...

A multi-parameter grading system for optimal fitting of scleral contact lenses [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2022
Background: While scleral lens practise has improved over the years due to factors such as availability of lenses with better materials and designs as well as experience of practitioners, a lack of objectivity appears to remain in terms of assessment of ...

An observational study of changes in corneal parameters following use of soft contact lens and rigid gas permeable lens

open access: yesAsian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2017
Background: There have been significant advancements in contact lens designs and materials over the past few decades, the lenses still represent a foreign body in the ocular environment and may lead to physiological (corneal oedema or thinning) as well ...

A biocompatible active artificial iris [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A contact lens mimicking an artificial iris is presented as solution for people suffering from iris deficiencies. As this is a biomedical device, biocompatibility is a key specification for material choice and design.

Givental's non-linear Maslov index on lens spaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Givental's non-linear Maslov index, constructed in 1990, is a quasimorphism on the universal cover of the identity component of the contactomorphism group of real projective space.

Decoding the Structure of Benzodithiophene Polymers for High‐Efficiency Organic Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study reveals a unique solid mesophase in top‐performing benzodithiophene‐based polymers for solar cells, comprising stacked solid‐like and liquid‐like layers. Combining nanoscale fibrillar domains with amorphous regions, it introduces a new structural paradigm.
