Measurements of the Beam-Wave Fluctuations over a 142-km Atmospheric Path [PDF]
An optical link has been established between the Canary Islands La Palma and Tenerife. A 1064-nm transmitting laser was located on La Palma whereas a BPSK communication receiver and measurement instruments were installed in ESA's OGS on Tenerife.

Cost-based burst dropping strategy in optical burst switching networks [PDF]
Optical burst switching (OBS) is a new paradigm for future all-optical networks. Intentional burst dropping is one of techniques used to achieve desired quality of service. In this paper we note that some bursts are more likely to cause contention.

Multiple extra macular branch retinal vein occlusions in hyperhomocysteinemia
Hyperhomocysteinemia is a well-known modifiable risk factor for thromboembolism. Retinal vascular occlusion in patients having hyperhomocysteinemia is a known entity, particularly in young patients.

Periorbital nodular fasciitis arising during pregnancy
Nodular fasciitis (NF) is a benign proliferation of fibroblasts and myofibroblasts that rarely occurs in the periorbital region. We report what we believe to be the first case of periorbital NF associated with pregnancy. A case of intravascular fasciitis,

Wavelength-diversity transmission for fading mitigation in the atmospheric optical communication channel [PDF]
Mitigation of index of refraction turbulence (IRT) effects is crucial in long-range atmospheric communication links. Diversity-transmission is one favorable way for fading compensation.

Anterior chamber fixation of a posterior chamber intraocular lens: A novel technique
We aimed to evaluate the implantation of a posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) in the anterior chamber (AC) with the haptics passing through two iridectomies to the posterior chamber.

Micro-optical elements from optical-quality ZIF-62 hybrid glasses by hot-imprinting [PDF]
Hybrid glasses derived from meltable metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) promise to combine the intriguing properties of MOFs with the universal processing ability of glasses. However, shaping of hybrid glasses in their liquid state has been elusive thus far.
