Visual acuity and color discrimination in patients with cataracts.
Color vision tests can give information about pathological changes in eye structures. The purpose of our research was to study the color vision sensitivity and visual acuity changes before and after cataract surgery. We used a saturated Farnsworth D15 color vision arrangement test to check color sensitivity changes in confusion line directions. The test is easily perceptible (essential to eldery patients), and it is possible to check color sensitivity changes in tritan, protan, and deutan confusion line directions. The results were analyzed in several ways: by summing the color differences between adjacent caps according to Bowman and averaging the color difference vectors according to Ving…

<title>Electronic eye occluder with time-counting and reflection control</title>
ABSTRACT In pediatric ophthalmology 2 3 % of all the children are impacted by a visual pathology amblyopia. It develops if a clear image isnt presented to the retina during an early stage of the developmen t of the visual system. A common way of treating this pathology is to cover the better-seeing eye to force the lazy eye to learn seeing. However, children are often reluctant to wear such an occluder because they are as hamed or simply because they find it inconvenient. This fact requires to find a way how to track the regi me of occlusion because results of occlus ion is a hint that the actual regime of occlusion isnt that what the optometrist has recommended. We design an electr…
Er:Cr:YSGG laser with electrooptic PLZT ceramics Q-switching Fabry-Perot interferometer output mirror
Summary form only given. Q-switching of Er:Cr:YSGG laser with transparent PLZT ceramics electro-optic modulators was reported previously. The extremely large quadratic EO effect in PLZT allows to build small size moderate control voltages. The high induced birefringence in PLZT results from an essential contribution to polarization (and consequently to the birefringence) of processes with longer relaxation times up to seconds, corresponding to the Er:Cr:YSGG laser operating rate. PLZT ceramics have also a high value of the refractive index (n /spl ap/ 2.2-2.3 for /spl lambda/ = 3 /spl mu/m, slightly depending on PLZT composition and temperature) and thus considerable Fresnel reflections R/s…
