Peripheral defocus does not necessarily affect central refractive development
PURPOSE Recent experiments in monkeys suggest that deprivation, imposed only in the periphery of the visual field, can induce foveal myopia. This raises the hypothesis that peripheral refractive errors imposed by the spectacle lens correction could influence foveal refractive development also in humans. We have tested this hypothesis in chicks. METHODS Chicks wore either full field spectacle ...
متن کاملRelative peripheral hyperopic defocus alters central refractive development in infant monkeys
Understanding the role of peripheral defocus on central refractive development is critical because refractive errors can vary significantly with eccentricity and peripheral refractions have been implicated in the genesis of central refractive errors in humans. Two rearing strategies were used to determine whether peripheral hyperopia alters central refractive development in rhesus monkeys. In i...
متن کاملSimultaneous defocus integration during refractive development.
PURPOSE To determine the effects of simultaneously presented myopic and hyperopic defocus on the refractive development of chicks. METHODS A novel form of dual-power lens was designed. Normal chicks 7 to 8 days of age were fitted with a dual-power lens over one eye and a plano lens over the fellow (control) eye. Dual-power lenses of +20/-10, +10/-10, +5/-10, and plano/-10-D were tested, along...
متن کاملDiversity does not Necessarily Imply Adaptability
Dynamic optimiser design currently assumes that diversity is a desirable property towards achieving adaptability, as a population-based optimiser contains an implicit memory. This paper examines the applicability of this assumption. Population-based algorithms of different size are tested against optimisers using a single solution. Results presented here suggest that this view is somewhat simpl...
متن کاملSpeculative Multithreading Does not (Necessarily) Waste Energy
While Chip Multiprocessors (CMP) with Speculative Multithreading (SM) have been gaining momentum, experienced processor designers in industry have reservations about their practical implementation. In particular, it is felt that SM is too energy-inefficient to compete against conventional superscalars. This paper challenges the commonly-held view that SM consumes excessive energy. We show a CMP...
