A novel stepwise micro-TESE approach in non obstructive azoospermia [PDF]
, 2016 Background: The purpose of the study was to investigate whether micro-TESE can improve sperm retrieval rate (SRR) compared to conventional single TESE biopsy on the same testicle or to contralateral multiple TESE, by employing a novel stepwise micro ...

A Biphasic Approach for Characterizing Tensile, Compressive, and Hydraulic Properties of the Sclera
bioRxiv, 2020 Measuring the biomechanical properties of the mouse sclera is of great interest, since altered scleral properties are features of many common ocular pathologies, and the mouse is a powerful species for studying genetic factors in disease.

Sclera Force Control in Robot-assisted Eye Surgery: Adaptive Force Control vs. Auditory Feedback [PDF]
International Symposium on Medical Robotics, 2019 Surgeon hand tremor limits human capability during microsurgical procedures such as those that treat the eye. In contrast, elimination of hand tremor through the introduction of microsurgical robots diminishes the surgeons tactile perception of useful ...

Keratoprostheses for corneal blindness: a review of contemporary devices [PDF]
, 2015 According to the World Health Organization, globally 4.9 million are blind due to corneal pathology. Corneal transplantation is successful and curative of the blindness for a majority of these cases. However, it is less successful in a number of diseases
