Eye shape and retinal shape, and their relation to peripheral refraction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Purpose: We provide an account of the relationships between eye shape, retinal shape and peripheral refraction. Recent findings: We discuss how eye and retinal shapes may be described as conicoids, and we describe an axis and section reference system for

The use of cues to convergence and accommodation in naive, uninstructed participants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A remote haploscopic video refractor was used to assess vergence and accommodation responses in a group of 32 emmetropic, orthophoric, symptom free, young adults naïve to vision experiments in a minimally instructed setting.

Influence of orthokeratology lenses on the state of accommodative function in children with myopia

open access: yesZaporožskij Medicinskij Žurnal, 2014
Aim. It was showed that optimal optical correction have positive effect on the accommodative apparatus of the myopic eye. Absolute and relative accommodation reserves, the nearest point of clear vision in 50 patients (100 eyes) with mild myopia was ...

Imaging Quality and Fatigue Quantification of Ocular Optical System

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Human eye is a special kind of optical system, and its imaging quality and fatigue level seem susceptible to the illumination. In this study we were sought to develop a novel method to quantify ocular fatigue more accurately, and to assess the influence ...

Accommodation Palsy in Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesTürk Nöroloji Dergisi, 2010
In patients with multiple sclerosis and disturbed near vision, accommodation palsy can be observed as a relatively rare ocular complication. After ruling out other causes that may cause accommodation palsy, these patients may benefit from near glasses ...

Binocular contrast discrimination needs monocular multiplicative noise. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The effects of signal and noise on contrast discrimination are difficult to separate because of a singularity in the signal-detection-theory model of two-alternative forced-choice contrast discrimination (Katkov, Tsodyks, & Sagi, 2006).

Ocular Autonomic Nervous System: An Update from Anatomy to Physiological Functions

open access: yesVision, 2022
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) confers neural control of the entire body, mainly through the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves. Several studies have observed that the physiological functions of the eye (pupil size, lens accommodation, ocular ...

Refining the NaV1.7 pharmacophore of a class of venom‐derived peptide inhibitors via a combination of in silico screening and rational engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Venom peptides have shown promise in treating pain. Our study uses computer screening to identify a peptide that targets a sodium channel (NaV1.7) linked to chronic pain. We produced the peptide in the laboratory and refined its design, advancing the search for innovative pain therapies.

Gradient moduli lens models: how material properties and application of forces can affect deformation and distributions of stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The human lens provides one-third of the ocular focussing power and is responsible for altering focus over a range of distances. This ability, termed accommodation, defines the process by which the lens alters shape to increase or decrease ocular ...

Identification of novel small molecule inhibitors of ETS transcription factors

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
ETS transcription factors play an essential role in tumourigenesis and are indispensable for sprouting angiogenesis, a hallmark of cancer, which fuels tumour expansion and dissemination. Thus, targeting ETS transcription factor function could represent an effective, multifaceted strategy to block tumour growth. The evolutionarily conserved E‐Twenty‐Six
