Numerous aspects unrelated to the active agent, such as patient care, formula- tion and disease variability can influence both objective and sub- jective measurements. The widely recognized phenomena known as the "placebo effect," "the Haw- thorne effect" and "regression toward the mean" are ...
A lens plate structure includes the one-way magnification ocular lens combined with a first prism, a second prism, and a magnifying lens. An image plate of one of a smartphone, a mobile phone, and a tablet PC can be inserted into or separated from a mounting holder structure. The lens ...
5A and 5B. Using the 0.70 NA long-working-distance objective in our system, the measured breakdown thresholds for cat cornea and lens was about 55 mW and 75 mW average laser power, respectively, which corresponds to a pulse energy of 0.6 nJ and 0.8 nJ, respectively. FIGS. 4A to 4D are...
Study design The objective of this study was to determine the expression and production of SFTA3 at the healthy human ocular surface and to investigate potential differences in the presence of dry eye disease (DED). SFTA3 expression was analyzed by western blot analysis, ELISA as well as by i...
The magnification of the telescope is chosen to produce the final targeted magnification when combined with the lens. The position of the telescope is selected so the exit pupil in 1 is imaged in the pupil plane of the eye. The focus can be changed by changing the relative position of the...
The mucin-secreted component forming the tear film’s glycocalyx is not routinely investigated in dry eye patients, even presenting a vital function for the tear composition. Recently, the ODISSEY European Consensus Group included the goblet cell count as an objective marker for the DED diagnosis31...
