Effective coverage indicators were based on intervention coverage or outcome-based measures such as mortality-to-incidence ratios to approximate access to quality care; outcome-based measures were transformed to values on a scale of 0–100 based on the 2·5th and 97·5th percentile of location-...
Terrence P. O’Brien, MD: Contact lenses are effective medical devices that can successfully correct refractive error in many patients. Advances in refractive surgery have provided patients additional options in the treatment...
When comparing the DDA and the CSM models, in the limit of dilute concentration up to a surface coverage of about 5%, and with NPs radius up to 60 nm, the calculated reflectances coincide for normal incidence conditions, which is the case for solar cells, as described by the international ...
However, the mobile phone that supports the fifth-generation network is composed of a compact high-performance antenna to satisfy the customer with the faster network coverage. Therefore, in this research work, the author focused only on the metamaterial structure that can be integrated inside the ...
Financial protection is essential to increase effective refractive error coverage equitably We were pleased to read the letter from Fardow highlighting the need for public funding to improve access to refractive error services. Fardow's call speaks to the ambitious targets for effective service ...

Refractive errorThis study explored the potential of telemedicine integration into the eye health ecosystem with an aim of scaling effective refractive error coverage in Kenya. This exploratory study was conducted telephonically and through online interviews with key opinion leaders, ophthalmologists, ...
Therefore, this study intended to undertake a SWOT analysis of the current models used by social enterprises in scaling effective refractive error coverage to achieve the 2030 IN SIGHT in Kenya. A review of the seven national strategic plans for eye health in Kenya was undertaken to get a ...
To determine the prevalence of visual impairment (VI), uncorrected refractive errors (URE), and effective refractive error coverage among individuals aged 15–50 years in Koshi Province, Nepal.#A population-based cross-sectional study was conducted in Koshi Province in which 4800 participants were ...
