Clinical application of accommodating intraocular lens [PDF]
The present review describes recent advances in application of accommodating intraocular lenses (AIOLs). Standard monofocal intraocular lenses (MIOLs) only correct distance vision, while AIOLs are designed to allow both good distance vision and near ...

Growth factor restriction impedes progression of wound healing following cataract surgery: identification of VEGF as a putative therapeutic target [PDF]
Secondary visual loss occurs in millions of patients due to a wound-healing response, known as posterior capsule opacification (PCO), following cataract surgery. An intraocular lens (IOL) is implanted into residual lens tissue, known as the capsular bag,

The lens as a model for fibrotic disease [PDF]
Fibrosis affects multiple organs and is associated with hyperproliferation, cell transdifferentiation, matrix modification and contraction. It is therefore essential to discover the key drivers of fibrotic events, which in turn will facilitate the ...

Optical performance of a new design of trifocal intraocular lens based on the Devil's diffractive lens [PDF]
In this work, we propose a new diffractive trifocal intraocular lens design with focus extension, conceived to provide a high visual performance at intermediate distances. This design is based on a fractal structure known as the "Devil's staircase". To assess its optical performance, numerical simulations have been performed with a ray tracing program ...

Skyglow inside your eyes: intraocular scattering and artificial brightness of the night sky [PDF]
The visual perception of the natural night sky in many places of the world is strongly disturbed by anthropogenic light. Part of this artificial light is scattered in the atmosphere and propagates towards the observer, adding to the natural brightness and producing a light polluted sky.

Comparison of visual performance of multifocal intraocular lenses with same material monofocal intraocular lenses. [PDF]
PURPOSE: To compare the visual performance of multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) and monofocal IOLs made of the same material. METHODS: The subjects included patients implanted with either Tecnis® monofocal IOLs (ZA9003 or ZCB00) or Tecnis® multifocal ...

Simultaneous tensile and shear measurement of the human cornea in vivo using S0- and A0-wave optical coherence elastography [PDF]
Understanding corneal stiffness is valuable for improving refractive surgery, detecting corneal abnormalities, and assessing intraocular pressure. However, accurately measuring the elastic properties, particularly the tensile and shear moduli that govern mechanical deformation, has been challenging.
