A Review on Dry Eye Disease Treatment: Recent Progress, Diagnostics, and Future Perspectives
Dry eye disease is a multifactorial disorder of the eye and tear film with potential damage to the ocular surface. Various treatment approaches for this disorder aim to alleviate disease symptoms and restore the normal ophthalmic environment.

Curvature sensor for the measurement of the static corneal topography and the dynamic tear film topography in the human eye [PDF]
A system to measure the topography of the first optical surface of the human eye noninvasively by using a curvature sensor is described. The static corneal topography and the dynamic topography of the tear film can both be measured, and the topographies ...

Inflammation and cigarette smoking predispose to macular diseases, and choroidal and retinal thinning. We explored the choroidal and retinal thicknesses in young adults against their 7-year C-reactive protein (CRP) level trajectory and pack-years smoked.

Black-hole lasing in coherently coupled two-component atomic condensates [PDF]
We theoretically study the black-hole lasing phenomenon in a flowing one-dimensional, coherently coupled two component atomic Bose-Einstein condensate whose constituent atoms interact via a spin-dependent s-wave contact interaction.

Increase in choroidal thickness after blue light stimulation of the blind spot in young adults
Background Blue light activates melanopsin, a photopigment that is expressed in intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs). The axons of ipRGCs converge on the optic disc, which corresponds to the physiological blind spot in the visual ...

Eye Contact and Fear of Being Laughed at in a Gaze Discrimination Task
Current approaches conceptualize gelotophobia as a personality trait characterized by a disproportionate fear of being laughed at by others. Consistently with this perspective, gelotophobes are also described as neurotic and introverted and as having a ...

ExpressionBot: An Emotive Lifelike Robotic Face for Face-to-Face Communication
This article proposes an emotive lifelike robotic face, called ExpressionBot, that is designed to support verbal and non-verbal communication between the robot and humans, with the goal of closely modeling the dynamics of natural face-to-face ...
