Valoración de los parámetros geométricos del menisco lagrimal mediante tomografía de coherencia óptica, y su aplicación en el diagnóstico diferencial…
2022
La unidad funcional lagrimal es un sistema integral formado por las glándulas lagrimales y de Meibomio, la superficie ocular (córnea y conjuntiva) y los párpados, así como los nervios sensoriales y motores que los conectan. El mecanismo homeostático de la unidad funcional lagrimal regula la secreción y distribución de la lágrima en respuesta a las señales de la superficie ocular, siendo uno de sus principales objetivos el mantenimiento de una adecuada película lagrimal precorneal. La película lagrimal está formada por dos capas, una capa lipídica externa y un gel muco-acuoso interno en contacto con el glicocálix del epitelio corneal. De vital importancia para su formación es el menisco lagr…
Teachers’ Focus of Attention in First-grade Classrooms: Exploring Teachers Experiencing Less and More Stress Using Mobile Eye-tracking
2021
This study investigated teachers’ focus of attention and stress in first-grade classrooms. Teachers’ (n = 53) focus of attention was recorded in fall and spring with a mobile eye-tracking device, and the teachers reported stress via questionnaires. Correlation analysis was used to examine association between teacher stress (exhaustion, cynicism, and inadequacy) and focus of attention. Then, one teacher reporting more stress and one reporting less stress were selected for a case study to examine variations in their focus of attention. The results showed positive associations between teachers’ perceived inadequacy and overall focus of attention (whole eye-tracking recording) both in fall and …
Teachers' visual focus of attention in relation to students' basic academic skills and teachers' individual support for students: An eye-tracking stu…
2022
This study investigated how teachers' visual focus of attention is associated with students' basic academic skills and teachers' individual support for students in basic academic skills in authentic classroom settings. Teachers' (N = 46) visual focus of attention in the classroom was measured with mobile eye-tracking, and students' (N = 879) literacy and math skills were tested in Grade 1. The results revealed that teachers' visual focus of attention in terms of fixation counts correlated with students' basic academic skills and teachers' individual support for students in literacy and math. Two case studies showed that teachers' visual focus of attention varied among students with differen…
Digital Device Usage Time and Ocular Symptoms during COVID-19 Pandemic
2021
Bakalaura darbs ir uzrakstīts angļu valodā uz 25 lappusēm. Tas satur 10 attēlus, 6 tabulas un 22 atsauces uz literatūras avotiem. Šī pētījuma galvenais mērķis bija novērtēt kā digitālo ierīču lietošanas izmaiņas ikdienā pirms Covid-19 pandēmijas un pandēmijas laikā Itālijā ietekmē acu nogurumu. Digitālo ierīču ietekme uz acīm tika novērtēta, apkopojot pētījuma dalībnieku atbildes uz anketas jautājumiem. Digitālo ierīču izmantošana mūsdienās ir plaši izplatīta, tās ir jāizmanto, bet ievērojot nepieciešamos piesardzības pasākumus, lai neradītu traucējumus redzes un psihiskajā sistēmās.
Using eye-movement modelling examples to improve critical reading of multiple webpages on a conflicting topic
2022
This project investigates the effects of an EMME intervention on undergraduates' sourcing when reading conflicting multiple texts on the Internet. Dependent variables: eye-movements on SERP, webs header, texts authors, and texts; use of source information in summaries; ideas from texts in summaries.

An interactional ‘live eye tracking’ study in autism spectrum disorder : combining qualitative and quantitative approaches in the study of gaze
2017
Recent studies on gaze behaviours in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have utilised “live eye tracking.” Such research has focused on generating quantitative eye tracking measurements, which provide limited (if any) qualitative contextual details of the actual interactions in which gaze occurs. This article presents a novel methodological approach that combines live eye tracking with qualitative interaction analysis, multimodally informed conversation analysis. Drawing on eye tracking and wide-angle video recordings, this combination renders visible some of the functions, or what gaze “does,” in interactional situations. The participants include three children with ASD and th…
Video display terminal use and dry eye: preventive measures and future perspectives
2022
Background: Dry eye disease (DED) is a common cause of ocular pain and discomfort. Dry eye disease (DED) stems from a loss-of-tear film homeostasis and is frequently seen in video display terminal (VDT) users. Video display terminal (VDT) use reduces blink rates and increases incomplete blinks, leading to tear film instability and ocular inflammation, promoting DED. Purpose: To assess and evaluate the methods for preventing VDT-associated DED and ocular discomfort. Methods: Studies were found using PubMed and Embase with the search terms: (digital visual terminal* OR computer use OR screen use OR smartphone OR display OR visual display terminal* OR computer vision syndrome OR tablet OR phon…
Schematic eye models to mimic the behavior of the accommodating human eye
2018
A simplified version of the human eye is known as schematic eye model. Since the first attempts in the middle of the 19th century, numerous approaches describing new schematic eye models have been introduced. Some of them are able to describe the accommodation ability of the human eye. Accommodative schematic eyes could be of great interest since they are able to explain the functionality of the human eye and they can be easily used for different research purposes. Some of these include the design and testing of multifocal ophthalmic solutions, evaluation of the effect of optical aberrations on the retinal image quality, and study of the optical performance of the eye at different distances…
