Application of big-data for epidemiological studies of refractive error. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 PurposeTo examine whether data sourced from electronic medical records (EMR) and a large industrial spectacle lens manufacturing database can estimate refractive error distribution within large populations as an alternative to typical population surveys ...

Analytic evaluation of diffuse fluence error in multi-layer scattering media with discontinuous refractive index [PDF]
, 2011 A simple analytic method of estimating the error involved in using an approximate boundary condition for diffuse radiation in two adjoining scattering media with differing refractive index is presented. The method is based on asymptotic planar fluences and enables the relative error to be readily evaluated without recourse to Monte Carlo simulation ...

Contrast sensitivity before and after refractive error correction among refractive error patients in Hawassa, Sidama, Ethiopia 2023 [PDF]
BMC OphthalmologyBackground Contrast sensitivity is an important measure of vision quality. Risk of falling injury is strongly associated with poor contrast sensitivity compared with poor near- and distance visual acuity.

Method for Assessing the Fidelity of Optical Diffraction Tomography Reconstruction Methods [PDF]
, 2019 We use a spatial light modulator in a diffraction tomographic system to assess the accuracy of different refractive index reconstruction algorithms. Optical phase conjugation principles through complex media, allows us to quantify the error for different refractive index reconstruction algorithms without access to the ground truth.
