Interventional human ocular safety experiments for 222‐nm far‐ultraviolet‐C lamp irradiation

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 517-526, March/April 2025.
To directly assess the ocular safety of 222‐nm far‐ultraviolet‐C (UVC) irradiation in humans, five subjects were exposed to 222‐nm UVC at doses of 22, 50, and 75 mJ/cm2. The findings indicate that far‐UVC irradiation does not cause “clinically significant photokeratitis” or long‐term ocular damage, though it may induce temporary discomfort.

Human ocular‐discomfort‐free thresholds for 222 nm Far‐UVC irradiation: A prospective interventional study

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Eye discomfort induced by 222 nm far‐UVC irradiation is significantly correlated with both irradiance and radiant exposure dose. The red circles indicate conditions with significant differences in the number of eye discomfort compared to the control group (blue circles), while the green circles indicate conditions with no difference from the control ...

The effect of Fresnel prisms on dynamic visual acuity

open access: yesBritish and Irish Orthoptic Journal, 2010
Aim:  To investigate the effect of Fresnel prisms on dynamic visual acuity (DVA). Methods:  Sixteen participants with normal visual acuity aged between 18 and 22 years were tested monocularly with four strengths of base-out Fresnel prisms (0Δ, 5 Δ, 15 Δ,

Focal ambient visual acuity stimulation improves vision in amblyopic children with stagnating BCVA—A retrospective study

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 7, Page 811-817, November 2026.
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study was to investigate whether amblyopic children with stagnating best‐corrected visual acuity (BCVA) would benefit from an additional stimulation therapy—specifically focal ambient visual acuity stimulation (FAVAS) integrated into a computer game—compared to occlusion therapy alone.
