Contact lens correction of presbyopia

Contact Lens and Anterior Eye, 2009
The ageing population highlights the need to provide effective optical solutions for presbyopic contact lens wearers. However, data gathered from annual contact lens fitting surveys demonstrate that fewer than 40% of contact lens wearers over 45 years of age (virtually all of whom can be presumed to suffer a partial or complete loss of accommodation ...

ContlensNet: Robust Iris Contact Lens Detection Using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks

IEEE Workshop/Winter Conference on Applications of Computer Vision, 2017
Contact lens detection in the eye is a significant task to improve the reliability of iris recognition systems. A contact lens overlays the iris region and prevents the iris sensor from capturing the normal iris region.
