ABSTRACT Purpose To develop a noninvasive method for estimating dielectric properties over a wide frequency range from 50 to 600 MHz. Existing methods are limited in accuracy and provide single‐frequency results. Furthermore, accurate knowledge of dielectric properties becomes more important, since medical device design and safety evaluation ...

A review of angle kappa and multifocal intraocular lenses and their effect on visual outcomes
Abstract Although most patients are satisfied with their vision after multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, dissatisfaction has been reported for various reasons, including poor visual outcomes and visual disturbances. Many published reports hypothesise that preoperative angle kappa may be an associated factor in patient dissatisfaction ...
