NETRA: Interactive Display for Estimating Refractive Errors and Focal Range [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We introduce an interactive, portable, and inexpensive solution for estimating refractive errors in the human eye. While expensive optical devices for automatic estimation of refractive correction exist, our goal is to greatly simplify the mechanism by ...

Slowing myopia progression with cylindrical annular refractive elements (CARE) spectacle lenses—Year 1 results from a 2‐year prospective, multi‐centre trial

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the effectiveness of 12 months of spectacle lens wear incorporating cylindrical annular refractive elements (CARE) in slowing myopia progression compared to single vision (SV) spectacle wear. Methods In an ongoing 2‐year prospective, double‐masked, multi‐centre clinical trial, 240 Chinese children aged 6–13 years, spherical

A truly knotless technique for scleral fixation of intraocular lenses: Two-year results

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2012
Scleral fixated intraocular lens (SFIOL) is a safe and effective option for managing optical aphakia. Suture related complications like suture erosion, suture breakage, endophthalmitis, etc. are unique to SFIOL.

Two‐year changes of macular choroidal thickness in response to 0.01% atropine eye drops: Results from the myopia outcome study of atropine in children (MOSAIC) clinical trial

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate 2‐year changes in macular choroidal thickness (ChT) in children receiving 0.01% atropine eyedrops and its relationship with spherical equivalent refraction (SER) progression and axial length (AL) elongation. Methods A total of 250 myopic children aged 6–16 years (167%–0.01% atropine, 83‐placebo) were enrolled in the ...

A mathematical model for describing the retinal nerve fiber bundle trajectories in the human eye:Average course, variability, and influence of refraction, optic disc size and optic disc position [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Previously we developed a mathematical model for describing the retinal nerve fiber bundle trajectories in the superior-temporal and inferior-temporal regions of the human retina, based on traced trajectories extracted from fundus photographs.

Influence of outdoor time on the spherical equivalent and axial length in childhood myopia: A meta‐analysis

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract This meta‐analysis investigates the effectiveness of outdoor activities in reducing the onset of myopia in children and adolescents by analysing changes in axial elongation and spherical equivalent refractive error. Following PRISMA guidelines and registered in PROSPERO (CRD42024592971), the study included randomized controlled trials (RCTs ...
