Public Awareness of Hearing Aids and Cochlear Implants: A Google Trends Analysis of Media Campaigns
OTO Open, Volume 9, Issue 4, October-December 2025.Abstract Objective While one‐fifth of eligible candidates use hearing aids (HAs), a smaller proportion of eligible candidates receive a cochlear implant (CI), partly due to cost and knowledge gaps. This study aims to quantify internet relative search volumes (RSVs) as a general awareness proxy for HAs and CIs around relevant events.

Deciphering the performance of different surface models for corneal topography
Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 1270-1281, September 2025.Abstract Purpose To study the performance of different corneal surface models to be used for ray tracing. Models based on geometric surfaces and polynomial fits were compared and the differences discussed. Methods For this simulation study, five characteristic generic surface configurations were generated: (A) perfect biconic, (B) decentred biconic ...
