Non-invasive assessment of human cone photoreceptor function.

open access: yesBiomedical Optics Express, 2017
Vision begins when light isomerizes the photopigments within photoreceptors. Noninvasive cellular-scale observation of the structure of the human photoreceptor mosaic is made possible through the use of adaptive optics (AO) enhanced ophthalmoscopes, but ...

From Aid Dependency to Self‐Reliance: Lessons From Sierra Leone and Rwanda's Strategies for Eliminating Preventable Blindness in Africa: A Perspective Study

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Preventable blindness remains a leading cause of disability in low‐income countries (LICs), with 91.5% of cases in Sierra Leone and 83.9% in Rwanda considered avoidable. Reliance on foreign aid has supported eye care development in Africa, yet has also fostered systemic dependency.

Properly Speaking, Sir Isaac Newton Was the First Perceptual Psychologist and, Therefore, the First Psychologist

open access: yesColor Research &Application, Volume 51, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Newton’s insight that “the rays are not colored” anticipated a constructivist view of perception in which physical stimuli provide input but perceptual qualities arise from neural processing. Framed by Newton’s view, early sensory psychology and modern neuroscience converged on the conclusion that color is an internally generated percept, shaped by ...

Automated Diagnosis of Hypertensive Retinopathy Using Res‐UNet and Graph Convolutional Networks

open access: yesHealthcare Technology Letters, Volume 13, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
The proposed framework integrates retinal vessel segmentation and artery/vein classification using deep residual UNET and GCN models for hypertensive retinopathy diagnosis. By computing the arteriovenous ratio, the method accurately detects HR stages from retinal fundus images. The system achieves reliable performance using the DRIVE dataset.
