Butterfly Optics Exceed the Theoretical Limits of Conventional Apposition Eyes [PDF]
Optical experiments on butterfly compound eyes show that they have angular sensitivities narrower than expected from conventional apposition eyes. This superior performance is explained by a theoretical model where the cone stalk is considered as a ...

Intraocular pressure in a cohort of healthy Eastern European schoolchildren: variations in method and corneal thickness [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Intraocular pressure (IOP) in the developing eye of a child is not always easy to measure and there is no technique that is known to be the most accurate for the young eye. Measurements are needed on many cohorts of children with different

Limitations of Reconstructing Pentacam Rabbit Corneal Tomography by Zernike Polynomials
The study aims to investigate the likelihood of Zernike polynomial being used for reconstructing rabbit corneal surfaces as scanned by the Pentacam segment tomographer, and hence evaluate the accuracy of corneal power maps calculated from such Zernike ...

Rapid and Accurate Pressure Sensing Device for Direct Measurement of Intraocular Pressure. [PDF]
PurposeIntraocular pressure (IOP) is the primary modifiable risk factor for glaucoma. Current devices measure IOP via the dynamic response of the healthy cornea and do not provide the accurate IOP measurements for patients with altered corneal ...

A comparison of two conjunctival rotation autograft techniques in primary pterygium surgery. [PDF]
PURPOSE: To compare the effects of 90° and 180° conjunctival rotational autograft (CRA) techniques used in primary pterygium surgery. METHODS: Forty-five patients were included in this retrospective study. Visual acuity (VA), corneal topography, and auto-
